Barb---Wish I could help with your Sheltons, but I don't have either of your Samuels in my data base---lots of others, but neither of those. I can, however, let you know that there are no requirements of proof or documentation on any of the family trees posted on any of the genealogy sites---and no one corrects any mistakes. So take them with a "grain of salt". Merry Christmas and happy hunting!!
