Dear Dean, Like your Grandmother, my father, who grew up in Southern Illinois and had a Great-Grandmother with the maiden name of Shelton, always figured (and rather hoped, I think) that our line was connected to the Shelton Gang. Therefore, over the years I've compiled info on the ancestors of the Shelton brothers. I discovered that if my line was connected, it was before the William and Hannah Yates Shelton listed below. I hope this helps. Happily in Christ, Harlene Soper Brown My Line to my Great-Great-Grandmother, Kate Shelton McGinnis 1 William SHELTON b: 07 Feb 1796 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia d: 04 Jul 1852 in Woods Valley, Vanleer Township, District 9, Dickson, Tennessee .. +Martha 'Patsy' Lewis PAYNE b: 01 Nov 1795 in North Carolina d: 28 Mar 1864 m: 09 Aug 1817 in Maury County, Tennessee ........ 2 George Wilson SHELTON b: 19 Feb 1822 in Dickson County, Tennessee d: 08 Sep 1907 in Reevesville, Johnson, Illinois ............ +Nancy Vinson RICE b: 22 Oct 1828 in Tennessee d: 18 May 1866 in Johnson County, Illinois m: 16 Sep 1849 in Johnson County, Illinois ................... 3 Narcissa Kathline 'Kate' SHELTON b: 16 Jan 1852 in Reevesville, Johnson, Illinois d: 17 Nov 1925 in Reevesville, Johnson, Illinois Direct Descendants of William Shelton - Ancestor of the Shelton Gang 1 William Shelton b: Abt. 1740 d: 1794 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia .. +Hannah Yates m: Bef. 1761 ........ 2 William Shelton, Jr. b: Bet. 1761 - 1764 in Virginia ........ 2 John Shelton b: 1764 in Virginia d: 1830 in North Carolina ........ 2 Agnes Shelton b: Abt. 1766 in Virginia d: 1855 in Kentucky ........ 2 Ann Shelton b: 1767 in Virginia ........ 2 Susannah Shelton b: 1769 in Virginia ........ 2 Elijah F.

Phyllis, The 37 marker is an excellent choice for Y-DNA. Your male tester must have the last name of Shelton. Hopefully the results will place you into an existing Shelton line and give you some more history.

I have been wanting to find a Shelton in our line, and think I can do this ------ and get him to do the DNA. Would the 37 marker (now $119) be a good one to do. (My sister in law and I would be paying for this.) Therefore, would someone advise about which one to go for. Thanks. The Sheltons I search are in Kentucky -- Owen / Gallatin / Carroll counties. William Hayden Shelton, whose father I believe to be Frederick, was born 1839 in Owen Co. I have the line solid coming forward......................BUT can't get behind them. Would hope the DNA might give light as to whom we connect before 1839. Phyllis Raker

Has anyone done DNA testing for the Shelton's in Muhlenberg & Todd Counties in Kentucky? Thanks in advance, Linda in Kentucky

Ever trying to break thru my stubborn Shelton brick wall.....  often when I get following a clue I bump into lines going back to Middlesex Ralph.  DNA reveals this is not my line.  I am wondering.....  has anybody else wondered......   We know of Sheltons marrying Sheltons back in Pittsylvania area.  Could it be perhaps that some of what folks used to think was intermarriage really was not?  In other words, if you did not know a persons DNA only his surname you might be more inclined to think that a Shelton marrying a Shelton would be "intermarriage".  I've having a hard time trying to put my question into words......  Since my own (what look to be) good leads end up pointing to Middlesex Ralph line.....  do we know if any of these marrying any other Shelton DNA lines?  I realize the Y chrom will follow the male line.  I wonder if any of these folks married into the Ralph Shelton/Mary Pollard line???  Anybody know?  Sheila
