I was recently browsing some history books, and came upon one that said that my family of Feltons descended from a "second son of a Lord Felton." My ancestor was Prudence Felton, b. 1801 - Washington Co., MD/d. 07 Jul 1864 - Horse Shoe Run, Preston Co., VA/WV. She m. 08 Nov 1825 - Frederick Co., VA to Abraham Daniel WOTRING, b. 27 Oct 1804 - Aurora, Preston Co., VA/WV/d. 13 Jun 1891 - Frederick Co., VA. Her parents were John Felton and Mary Eleanor McHENRY of Ryan's Glade, MD and WV. Her grandfather's name was Benjamin, and according to the history books, the Feltons came from England in 1732 and settled in MA. I would be most interested in finding out who this "Lord Felton" is, who the second son was, and the line to Prudence. As well, is the line provable? Any and all help is appreciated.
