I am related to the Shelton family through my Newton line. My great grandmother is the daughter of John Redman Newton and Susan A. Taylor. John's first wife was Sarah Snellings. They are from the Falmouth part of Stafford county. Some of you may already have this information, because it came from cousin (distant) Bill Deyo. I though I would post it anyway. If this information is incorrect please let me know so I can update my files ********************************************************************************************** Descendants of Andrew J.
