This yearbook lists the members of the Senior class of 1929, faculty members, members of the Corps of Cadets, and many members of various clubs (not all). Unfortunately, it does not list the names of the members of the Junior, Sophomore or Freshmen classes (only officers listed for those classes). It includes the following name(s): Shelton, Miss Anne Shelton, Anne Morton Shelton, Bertha Eleanor Shelton, Miss There's over 1,900 records, so I've only listed the name(s), as it appears in the yearbook in this message.

I am somewhat confident that my great grandmother, Ida Belle Shelton, is descended from this same line but have found no concrete evidence. She married Leslie Lee Tirey on October 10, 1901. Perhaps you can help me in making this connection. Ida Belle was born September 26, 1883 and died December 18, 1961. She was born in Illinois and was the daughter of James B. Shelton and Minnie Francis Brelsford. James B. was born in Dayton, Ohio and died February 21, 1930. Hope you can help me. I have been to Rural Plains and Scotchtown as well as Red Hill. All of it was quite fascinating and educational. Phil French

Have been looking for years to touch base with descendants of James R. Shelton (wife was Mary Elizabeth Alderson) and Colin Shelton (wife was Martha?) children of John and Elizabeth Shelton, Civil war era of Columbia, TN. I am descended from Sarah Shelton, wife of Asa Hodge of Columbia. Sister of the previously mentioned James R. and Colin. Any information appreciated. Alex in Missouri

I'm looking for information on Greenwood Shelton born about 1784 in Va. He later moved to Owen County, KY. He married Jane Lyons in April 1809 in KY. I believe he may have had a second wife name Virginia. I'm searching for his parents. I believe he may be connected to Daniel Shelton who also moved from Va to Owen County, KY. Thanks, Paula

I went to the Jacksonville, GA site and took a look at the pictures. They were really great. The Sheltons shown on the site are from the line of Ralph of Middlesex. Charles Irby Shelton (b. Nov. 16, 1787, Pittsylvania Co., VA; d. July 19, 1871, Jacksonville, Telfair Co., GA) was the son of Crispen Shelton (b. Feb. 28, 1761; d. after 1805) and Susannah Irby. Crispen was the son of Abraham Shelton (b. ca 1737, VA; d. 1789, VA) and Chloe Robertson (b. ca 1739, Amelia Co., VA) and grandson of Crispen Shelton (b. Apr. 1, 1713, Middlesex Co., VA; d. Oct. 29, 1794, Pittsylvania Co., VA) and his wife Lettice Unknown. I am also descended from Crispen & Lettice through their son Lewis Shelton. So Charles Irby Shelton would have been a great-nephew of my ancestor, Lewis. Thanks for posting the link---it was very interesting. Happy New Year to all!!!

Hi, I would like to hear from anyone with these names in their family history; Henry, Ann, Alexander, John Henry, Caroline, Sarah, Martha, Mary Ann, Frances, Emily Jane, Louisa, James, Elizabeth, Charles, George and William SHELTON. The area is mostly Woodford and Leytonstone starting in the early 1800`s. Looking forward to hearing from someone Margaret in Australia

If there are any more descendents of Lewis Shelton (s/o Crispen, grandson of Ralph) out there, you might find this interesting. I found it today. From "South Carolina Baptists" by Leah Townsend, "Anderson County Churches", p. 197: "A large group of Baptists collected about Shockley Ferry on Savannah River in Pendleton District sometime in the eighties, and at least by 1790 had been constituted a church of that name.* Garrett, 'Saluda Assoc., p. 14, gives the traditional date of constitution as 15 or 20 years before 1800; 'Asplund's Reg.' 1. and 3. ed., lists a church called Savannah River, Love's or Lover's Ferry, in Abbeville District, which was organized in 1790 and which had in that year 30 members, served by LEWIS SKELTON, an itinerant from a church at Pittsylvania, VA; and from entries in 'ibid', 5. and 6. ed., it appears that the above was meant for Shockley Ferry; the figures there given for 1790-4 are obviously erroneous; according statements in Mercer, 'GA Assoc.', p. 28, Shockley Ferry Church must have entered that association sometime between 1788 and 1792; no LEWIS SKELTON has been found, but a LEWIS SHELTON was living in 1790 (Census, p. 82) in Pendleton District with 4 slaves and there ! are references to a LEWIS SHELTON in Padgetts Creek CB (1804) and in Cedar Spring CB (1802)." I believe the first Lewis Shelton mentioned above (erroneously called Lewis Skelton) was Lewis, s/o of Crispen. The references to Lewis Shelton in connection with the Padgetts Creek and Cedar Springs churches probably refer to Lewis's son, Lewis Shelton, Jr. Lewis Sr. died in 1794 in Pendleton Dist., SC and his will is recorded in Anderson Co., SC. (I have a copy of this will if anyone is interested.) Lewis Shelton Sr. was my 5g-grandfather. Happy New Year to everyone. Jan in MO

From the Journal of State of North Carolina House of Commons for 18 Apr 1783. Among those listed as a person "duly elected to represent" his respective county.was "Caswell, David Shelton" ====== Also for 22 April 1784: "The returning officer for County of Caswell certified that David Shelton was duly elected to represent said County in this House, whereupon the said David Shelton appeared, was qualified agreeable to the Law and took his seat." ============ Then in the Fall of 1789: Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen, ... Received also the resignation of David Shelton. Justice of the Peace for the county of Caswell endorsed "Accepted" which was read, accepted by this House and returned.

From The State Records of North Carolina Collection of Walter Clark, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of NC, Volume XXI. (Richard Shelton is mentioned several times beginning as secretary to the Board of Trades in 1713.): : "Wednesday July 24, 1734, Mr, Shelton attending acquainted the Board that he had a Warrant from the late Lords Proprietors of Carolina granting him 12,000 acres of land but that the Gov having lately refused to give directions to the Surveyor to set out the said land he desired the Board would please to order the Gov to set out the said land." "November 6, 1734, An Order of the Com of Council of Nov 1, 1734 refer to the Board Mr Shelton's petition & a warrant from the Late Lords Prop granting him a Barony in South Carolina and praying a confirmation of the same was read & directions were given for prepar Dft of a Report in favor thereof which was sign'd on 19 Nov 1734."
