About Shelton Family Connections
I have learned family history research from my mother June W. (Shelton) Shupe. I have had fun learning about my father`s family, and hope that someone that is related will find and contact us, so that we can become aquainted. I recently found the extension of the Shelton line that took us back 2 more generations in Ohio. We had searched for over 40 years in our family for this family connection.
The Joseph Shelton`s children in Ohio, seemed to be orphaned, and sent to live in Illinois, with other families in the 1860`s. I am not sure why yet, as Joseph the father was still living, and remarried by 1870. I have found 6 of my great grandfather Rueben Shelton`s brothers and sister`s living in Illinois with in 3 counties now.
I have been refining my abilities to do research, and find the hard to find families.
May we find a connection together.
