Notes:

Research Notes:
In 2009 when John had his YDNA test the results came back as match in 37 and 67 tests. No common denominator was found. On Feb 27, 2013, a tester in the Oglesby group, Richard Arthur (Oglesby) Wilson, was a match to him in the 37, with a step 2 match. As it turned out, the Sheltons married into the Oglesby line with the marriage of Gustavas Adolphus Oglesby to Mary Elizabeth Shelton. She was sister to Lucinda Shelton who was mother of Winfield Scott Shelton whose descendant was the Shelton test. See notes on Gustavus, but he is likely the father of Lucinda's child, Winfield Scott, thus the Shelter tester and the Olgesby tester matching. Jesse is the great-uncle of Gustavas.

Jesse married Celia Witt on 15 Sep 1794 in Amherst Co, Virginia. Celia was born in May 1779 in Amherst, Amherst Co, Virginia; died on 3 Mar 1855 in Richmond, Madison Co, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

On Feb 27, 2013, a tester in the Oglesby group, Richard Arthur (Oglesby) Wilson, was a match to him in the 37, with a step 2 match. As it turned out, the Sheltons married into the Oglesby line with the marriage of Gustavas Adolphus Oglesby, so assuming that must be the reason the Shelton line showed a match.
Richard Arthur descends from Jesse Oglesby; and Gustavas descends from Contant, Sr., Jesse and Contant being brothers, Jacob Oglesby being their father, making Jesse the great-uncle of Gustavas.
