This is a long shot, but what the heck.My gr grandfather was James Shelton Bills b. Oct 5, 1847 Va & died Nov 5, 1920, probably Cabell Co, WVa.He was married to Sarah Jane Chaney. I have quite a bit on the Chaney side.I am curious as to if his middle name of Shelton somehow connects to the Shelton last name.His parents were Alfred Newton Bills & Margaret Tate.Alfred's parents were John E. Bills & an unnamed 2nd wife.Margaret Tate's parents were James Shelton Tate (Shelton as middle name again) & Sarah Fudge.The rest is fuzzy.If you have run across any of these family names, I'd really like to know.Thanks for your time.
