I'm forwarding this to the list......
I am looking for any info on the Meltons that eventually settled in
Vigo
and Parke Cos. I am very interested in finding anyone researching our
line that might have more info than we do. I have distant,unknown
cousins in Terre Haute, I am sure. The Meltons weren't close and
information handed down is scanty or just plain wrong! We have gotten
back as far as Nathaniel Melton b.1785 in VA. who married Elizabeth
Hannon b.1799 in N.C. They had two sons and a daughter that we know of
Henry Harrison who married Prudence Dishman,Mary Ecton and Nancy Corbin
Inman. Henry and Prudence had Pinkney Nathaniel Melton who married
Isabel Inman and sired my grandfather who was Richard Melton. He married
Anna Wood and gave birth to my mother who was Hilda Lorraine Melton. She
married William Harris and the Harris clan were born Terre Haute but
reared in Rosedale. I apologize if this letter is irrelevant or wordy or
whatever adjective you'de like to afix to it but I need help. Please
subscribe to the list. Thank you, Darla
