I am
trying to find more information on Robert Shelton of Woodford County, KY.
He was born around 1770, probably in Culpepper County, VA and was the
son of Reuben Shelton and Priscilla Medley. He married Alpha Vawter
in Culpepper County. Around 1796 he left Virginia with his brother
Medley Shelton for Scott County, Kentucky and ultimately settled in Woodford
County. His known children so far are Col. Medley Shelton, who married
Malinda Wilhoit and Robert Shelton, Jr. I would like to find out if
he had any other children and when and where he died.
Thanks
