Why not give yourself or a male relative an early Christmas gift and
join us?
This DNA project is open to any male with the last name of Shelton,
Skelton, Chilton, Sheldon or any other spelling that may have been
written in records where there is some confusion. This is a cheek swab
test, no needles. A kit is sent right to your home. The cost for a 12
loci test is $101 and a 25 loci test $169. If you add on the 13 loci
test to the 12 loci test at a later time the total cost then becomes
$190. I recommend the 25 loci test right from the beginning. The
results take up to 6 weeks from when the kit is returned. You do not
have to join in this group. You can keep your results private.
To see if your DNA matches anyone who has already tested, you can order
a kit here:
http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_det.asp?count=31&group=Shelton
Thanks to one of our support testers, Tina Hall, we also have a web page
that may answer some of your questions .
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~thall/dna.html
The information on this page is only accurate on this particular date
using information that has been received and is subject to change at any
time with more and continuing information. The last four numbers have
been changed on some of the 25 marker tests to match FamilyTreeDNA's
changes, which has not changed the lines they are in. Four testers have
gone from the 12 marker test to the 25 marker test and in two cases
their line was changed with the additional information..
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you,
Margaret Shelton

My great grandmother Lola Chilton of Casey County Kentucky, married my great grandfather James Allen of Casey County Kentucky. In my own research on ancestry.com I run across a Charles Arthur Chilton who migrated from Virginia to Kentucky in the mid l850"s to accept a land grant. An earlier Charles Arthur Chilton had been among the friends of Virginia's revolutionary heroes around 1800. He was of landed gentry on the south Virginia Coastal Plain.
My grandmother, Lucy Jo (Chilton) Allen was orphaned when a child but
she called a self trained veternarian name Arthur Chilton her Uncle.Among her uncles or her grandfather was an M.D. who migrated
from the waters of the South Fork of Green River,in Casey County Ky to
Missouri.
I still have more research to complete on this branch of my ancestry. My grandmother, who is now 109, unfortunately started becoming senile two years ago and is no longer a trigger for research efforts.
We have more DNA results. The two new results are SH-41 and SH-42.
