Ira Shelton

 is a Minor character featured in Red Dead Redemption.

Background
Ira is the younger brother of Lewis Shelton. He is very confident in his shooting skills, challenging Marston whenever Ira sees him. He is most often found playing Poker in Armadillo with his brother and he, like anyone else who plays Poker, can be challenged to a Duel if caught cheating. He looks to be in his early to mid 30's.

Interactions
He plays Poker in Armadillo, and may also challenge the player to a sharpshooting contest if found in the wilderness. The player can encounter Ira in Undead Nightmare helping to defend Rathskeller Fork.

Trivia

 * In Odd Fellow's Rest, two graves can be found, Lila Shelton, and Edgar Shelton. Both died in the same year, and both were struck by lightning. However, odds are they weren't brothers or sisters, they were more likely an aunt and uncle, or something similar, due to the dates of their deaths and births.
 * It would also appear that Ira owns the blacksmith in Armadillo except for the fact that his last name is misspelled on the sign, although this may be a coincidence as he is often seen using the whet stone outside the blacksmith to sharpen an axe.
