Gilbert Shelton was living in France for a while. Is he still living there? jaknouse 15:59, 13 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

> Apparently he was still in France in 2017 - see https://downthetubes.net/?p=41281 BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 23:33, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In other sites I have seen that Shelton was born in Dallas. I'd like to know what's the source for that information, because I'm trying to write his biography for the Spanish Wikipedia. Can you please help me? (Sorry about my bad English). Thank you.
