Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
We have test results from three more participants. Two of these are exact matches with
three others and the third is the Roderick Shelton line out of Buncombe, NC.
Some of these SHELTON'S may actually be SKELTON'S, SHELDON'S, or CHILTON'S, etc., with
their name being changed many generations back. This is not going to be known unless we
have someone test from your established line for comparison. You may be missing part of
your family.
Thanks to Tina Hall, we now have a web page for our DNA project. You can view it at:

I will be happy to answer any questions.

I am looking for a Robert and/or Thomasina Chilton, who in 1947, placed a baby boy up for adoption in St Louis, MO. This child was my father and I would like any information that anyone might have. Thank You!!

I AM RELATED THRU CHILTON LATHAM, JAMES BROTHER. CHILTON IS MARY AND JOHN'S 3rd CHILD.

I came across an something that may give a rough idea of what the odds could
be for getting the Chilton surname mixed up in early America. Nationwide in
the 1880 census, the number of individuals listed are:
Shelton 15,763
Chilton 1,404
Chelton 119
I think most of the Chiltons are probably descended from the three brothers
in Virginia,
Jeff

We have some more DNA test results. This project is moving along nicely. So far only
Shelton surnames have tested. It would be nice if some of the other surnames would
consider testing, especially from lines where records spell your name more than one way.
Even if you got together as a group to send in one sample would be very much appreciated.
