Movements of David Shelton
I first found David Shelton in Rowan County, North Carolina when he was made the executor of the will of Jesse Jenkins, Dec. 1802. On Feb 20,1808 (DB 21 p.262-265) David Shelton was in court with Joel Jenkins, Martha Jenkins widow of Jesse Jenkins, Patsy Shelton wife of David Shelton and other Jenkinses to sell land they all inherited from Jesse Jenkins. After 1808 some of the Jenkins family including widow Martha moved to Butler County, Kentucky. David appears (perhaps) in Muhlenberg nearby in 1810, then Butler in 1820. Also moving from Rowan County North Carolina to Butler County, Kentucky are the Henlein/Henline/Haneline/Hanely brothers, Jacob and Elijah who lived near the Jenkins family in Rowan County. Jacob married Bethiah Jenkins, daughter of Jesse Jenkins. In 1819 Elijah Haneline (Hanely) married Elizabeth Shelton in Butler County, Kentucky. Sometime around 1824 David Shelton, Elijah Haneline, Jacob Haneline and some of the Jenkinses moved to Weakley/Henry County, Tennessee. David Shelton bought 92 acres from Hayden Wells in Weakley County in Dec of 1824 proven by oaths of Elijah Hanline and Jacob Hanline [Court Minute Book, Weakley Co, p.129]. D. Shelton and E. Hainline in 1825 Weakley County received a grant of land near John Moore and John Moore Jr. On Jan. 2, 1826, Henry County, Tennessee David Shelton received grants: #24457 of 15 acres, #24468 75 acres, #24469 92 acres and jointly with Elijah Hanlin grant #24470 for 1000 acres. In 1827 on the Weakley county tax list both David Shelton and Elijah Haneline were noted to be gone. By 1830 both of them were in Calloway County, Kentucky.
