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 (Mary Elizabeth) married into the Oglesby line with her marriage to 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; making Jesse the great-uncle of Gustavas.

Mary married Gustavus Adolphus Oglesby, (Y-DNA step 2 match) on 14 Apr 1852 in Webster Co, Kentucky. Gustavus (son of Sheriff Constant Oglesby, Jr. and Nancy Ann Knight) was born on 9 Sep 1829 in Christian Co, Kentucky; died on 29 Jul 1896 in Bordley, Union Co, Kentucky; was buried in Bordley Cem, Bordley, Union Co, Kentucky.

We know that Sarah Ellen and Aggy's mother Lucinda and probably their father, depending on what you surmise, were born in North Carolina not Kentucky. I notice the census' have different and sometimes incorrect informaion The best kept secret is still a secret. It makes one wonder what was there about her that it appears that neither children nor grandchildren verbally passed on or had written down her death and burial. Many of her siblings are buried in different cemeteries around there I have visited them. I have been to the Shelton Cemetery where her parents are buried. Albert lived to be quite old but apparently he left no records either so the mystery goes on, something strange here.

Hi Vonette, some of Lucinda's siblings are buried in Mt. Lebanon but I have seen postings on Ancestry etc. that they are buried in Shelton Cemetery on Shelton Cemetery Road, David and I went out there this past summer and Doug Shelton lives there on the property, he said George Washington Shelton gave that property for the cemetery, he was not exactly aware of who was there but a lot of Sheltons are buried there. Guess you and I can do more research. We also went to Petersburg church cemetery few miles out of Sebree and Joe Z Shelton and wife are buried there, I posted a pic on Tina's site. However, I don't know where everyone went on that site etc. not much response. It appears the genealogy searches has somewhat disappeared. Thanks for the query post, always open for new or corrected info. Keep in touch

I am particularly interested in Lucinda's daughter Agnes. She married my ggrandfather, Atwood Willoughby. I have no idea what happened to my ggrandmother, Atwood's first wife Mahulda "Huldy" Patterson. They had four children, three girls and a boy who apparently did not live to adulthood. They were living in Union County KY in 1880.

Regarding Lucinda's daughter Agnes.. She is in my family tree and had two children, Joseph Finley Shelton and Lula V. Shelton. These children carried the Shelton name, and I don't know who was their father. She also had a daughter, Isabelle with Atwood T. Willoughby.

Atwood T Willoughby died at Western State insane asylum
March 25 1911 and I assume is buried there. Joseph Z Shelton was Lucinda's brother, and my great, great, uncle
or foster great great grandfather as he raised my great grandfather, Winfield Scott Shelton. Winfield has a brother
Albert Shelton, that was also Lucinda's child but the father's are different from DNA tests. Lucinda's brother and sisters are buried at both Mt Labanon and the Shelton
Cemetery....her father is buried at Mt Labanon Cemetery according to his son John Shelton that wrote a handwritten genealogy of his family and I transcribed in a book. Ask me on each separate brother and sister of Lucinda's and I will furnish the date of death and where. euglenagail@aol.com

You are correct. The father's idenity is unknown and I wonder if maybe all the children had different father's.
We know Winfield Scott Shelton and Albert Shelton had
different father's as the DNA proves this....but with girls
I don't know to date how that is proved.

My gr gr grandmother, Lucinda Shelton supposedly had an affair with General Winfield Scott (resulting in my gr grandfather Winfield Scott Shelton and others). One of Lucinda's children (from this affair?) was named Cordelia. Coincidence? I wonder. Cordelia only lived to the age of 10.

(~ss this is not likely. Winfield Scott b 1786, Lucinda b 1833. It's more likely he was referred in that time and as was the custom of many to name children after politicians and other high-profile public figures. In 1852 he was nominee for Whigs for presidential election against Franklin Pierce. If there's anything to the following comment and his daughter married an Oglesby, there was a family connection.

My father passed 5 years ago. He always told me that one of General Winfield Scott's daughters married an Oglesby. I found a bird in the Texas birding book today named after him ?Scott?s Oriole?. This prompted my Internet search today. My father was Howard Scott Oglesby. His family was from Pennsylvania and we lived in Jacksonville,FL. Has anyone ever come across the Oglesby name?

Hi,
I was looking at your family history tree that I found by google and we appear to have many ancestors in common. My Great-grandmother was Emily Frances Melton. I have more info on her if you are interested. My email is below. Nice to talk to a person with common roots!

Obituary per Billy "Jelly Bean" Oglesby:

"One hundred and five years ago on March 20, 1868 "Uncle Dave" Oglesby was born near Sebree, Kentucky. One hundred and four years and three hundred and sixty-one days later, the beloved gentleman died, after a short illness at the Union County Hospital.

"Uncle Dave", as he was affectionately called by the multiple members of his family and close friends, had celebrated each of his centenarian birthdays with parties held at the home of his daughter, Mrs. D.M. Timmons. When he was 101, some sixty-six of his relatives attended the party, representing three states. On his 104th birthday there were 90 visitors to his birthday party that lasted all day. At that time a picture of five generations of his family were made and visitors were registered from as far away as Kansas. The five generations were Mr. Oglesby, Mrs. R.K. Baker, both of Pride, Mrs. Bill Jenkins of Morganfield and Mrs. Jimmy Rodgers of Indianapolis, and her son, Brian.

Mr. Oglesby and his late wife, the former Martha Whitledge who died in 1942, were the parents of 11 children, six boys and five girls, six of whom are still living. They are Miss Prudy Oglesby, Mrs. Nola Timmons, Mrs. Lottie Baker, Joe Oglesby and Charles Oglesby all of Union County, and Carroll Oglesby of Henderson.

He had been a resident of Union County for over 84 years, always residing in the Boxville-Pride area.

When asked to what he attributed his longevity on his 101st birthday, he said it was probably due to a family trait as his grandmother, Betty Shelton Oren lived to be 108 years old. His mother, Mary Elizabeth Shelton, came from North Carolina, settling near Sebree where he was born, over a century ago.

His prescription for a long life was moderation in all things, including eating. Mr. Oglesby has always been a farmer and a staunch Republican. He still possessed an alert mind and a keen sense of humor up to the time of his death, even though he lost his eyesight 16 years ago."

Miss Lora Oglesby, 78-year-old daughter of the centurian, followed her father in death Sunday.
The two are survived by the above listed children, brothers and sisters. Mr. Oglesby also has 17 grandchildren, 30 great-grandchildren and eight great-great-grandchildren.
Joint funeral services were conducted at three o'clock Tuesday at Whitsell Funeral Home in Morganfield, with Brother Sam Belo and Brother Edmond Jacobs officiating. Burial was in the Bordley Cemetery. *

* Obituaries dated March 21, 1973, newspaper unknown. Contributed by Bill Oglesby of Henderson, who is the grandson of David Wilson Oglesby.

Joseph Z Shelton was Lucinda's brother, and my great, great, uncle or foster great great grandfather as he raised my great grandfather, Winfield Scott Shelton. Winfield has a brother
Albert Shelton, that was also Lucinda's child but the father's are different from DNA tests.

Winfield and Albert you say had different fathers, who was Albert's source for the test? I believe Donna
Shelton's father Johnny Shelton was the DNA source for Winfield. (donnashelton1938 ancestry board)

I am particularly interested in Lucinda's daughter Agnes. She married my ggrandfather, Atwood Willoughby. I have no idea what happened to my ggrandmother, Atwood's first wife Mahulda "Huldy" Patterson. They had four children, three girls and a boy who apparently did not live to adulthood. They were living in Union County KY in 1880.
