SHOTTON Karen Chambliss Sun Feb 16 22:56:29 1997- POSTED MARCH 9, 1997 My gg grandfather Christopher Shotton is shown on the 1810 US Census as living in Woodford County,KY. He had a wife (25-46 yrs), 2 daughters & 1 son under age 10. I descend from his son William Newby Shotton who is shown on the 1850 US Census in Knox County, Missouri as being born in Virginia. Family records list his date of birth as 8 May 1806. His brother, Christopher Columbus Shotton was born in Lexington, KY 1 May 1813. I have no record of Christopher Shotton's wife's name or the names of his parents (who family records show came from England). I could not find Christopher Shotton on the 1820 US Census in Woodford County, KY. Both his son's appear on the 1840 US Census in Knox County, Missouri. Christopher (the father) seems to have vanished. Would there be any records in Woodford Cty that might show his wifes name? deeds? tax records? or for that matter Christopher's date & place of birth or he may have died there. There are many, many Shotton's in County Durham, England and I have found a christening record for a Christopher in about 1772 listing his father as John - no mother's name is listed. Additionally, I have found a marriage record for a John Shotton and an Eleanor Newby 25 Jun 1765 inDurham County, England. This could be the source of the middle name of my gg grandfather William Newby Shotton. Would Woodford County have been part of Virginia in 1806 when William Newby was born? I need some assistance in hunting for information on Christopher & his family in KY. Can you offer a suggestion as to the places I should search in KY?

Craig Mon Mar 3 22:20:44 1997 Looking for information on John W. Craig, who appears in 1830 census index for Woodford County. Had sons William and Frederick and one daughter, name unknown. A William Craig also shows up in the census index. I'm waiting for the actual census records at this time. Trying to determine, for John and William, wife's names, where John was before 1830, names of other children of John, and identity of his parents. I believe the middle initial stands for "Wesley" or "Westley". It appears that they may both have moved to Anderson County shortly after the census and owned/acquired land there along Gilbert Creek. Land records from Anderson County establish that William's son, Lindsey Craig, inherited some of this land. We have a fairly complete record from Lindsey to my father, David T. Craig, son of David Edward (Ed) Craig, grandson of David Henry Craig and great-grandson of Lindsey.
