Shelton is the son of William C. Shelton. William C. Shelton, b.1797, died about 1884 without a will. However, there is a chancery case that lists all of his children which are: Francis(Fannie)Shelton Ferguson, Jemima R. Shelton, Abram J.(Joseph)Shelton, Elizabeth Shelton Hazelwood, Asaria M. Shelton, Anderson Shelton and William Shelton. Due to some dedicated digging by Mrs.Hawkins(a fellow genealogist), she found this case in the Patrick Co. courthouse.
