-Unproved: Charles C. (abt 1867). Several trees indicate Shelton and Huldah were the parents, but Charles is not in 1870 or 1880 household where Shelton is widower. While unlikely, if Charles was their son, he may have been given to another family to raise as it would be difficult for Shelton to care for an infant while farming.
