This DNA project is open to any male with the last name of Shelton, Skelton, Chilton or any other spelling that may have been written in records where there is some confusion. This is a cheek swab test, no needles. A kit is sent right to your home. The results take up to 6 weeks from when the kit is returned. Having your results published is optional. You can keep your results totally private. Please start with the 25 marker test as there is not enough information given in the 12 marker test to separate you out from several of the lines. To see if your DNA matches anyone who has already tested, you can order a kit here: http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_join.asp?code=D75896&special=true Tina Hall has had to change our DNA web site to the following address. This page may also answer some of your questions. http://home.comcast.net/%7Etinasgenealogy/dna.html Because the complete list is getting too large to send in its entirety, I will only show the lines of the new results. To view all of the results, please see our web page. The information on this page is only accurate on this particular date using information that has been received and is subject to change at any time with more and continuing information. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
