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
