Shellsford is near McMinnville and is no longer called a town, it referred to as a community. There is a Church and Cemetery by that name in the community. Yes, the Shells did operate a mill there. I am not exactly sure where it was located but I can find out if you would like this info. My e-mail is wilmadavenport@yahoo.com.
