This message also came to me instead of to the list where I assume Don meant it to go. Don is by this time in Germany and/or England, but may check his e-mail anyway. We have at least three Don Yelton's on our list. I have them as Don Yelton, Don P. Yelton and J. Don Yelton. The first and the last have sent messages this past week. The one in the middle is the son of Jason, son of James Bert, son of John..... I believe all three are related to the John Yelton who married Mary "Polly" Deck in Rutherford Co., NC.

I live in Hendersonville, NC, but I was raised in Rutherford County where many of my ancestors are burried. My direct ancestors are Don B., Archie Rollins, Charles, then John I think. I have visited most of the graves and they are listed on Bob Floydd's Rutherford Country/Western NC grave yard lists. I can't stay in communications because I leave tomorrow for Germany and England on business If you have information on how some of the Yeltons got to this part of the country I would surely be interested.
