This is possibly your James Sellers from the 1880 Freestone, Tx census: If this is your James, his mother Sarah is in the 1880 Hunt Co., Tx census with her son Crawford. George W seems to be listed with his grandmother in 1870 and I could not find James in 1870. There is a lot about this family on the Sellers Rootsweb list. Hope this helps and does not confuse things! 1870 Jackson County, AlabamaBridgeport Post OfficeDivision #1enumerated on 22 Jun 1870Page 6Sarah Sellars, 64, F, W, keeping house, $100/$460, TNYoung Sellars, 26, M, W, works in coal mine, ALCrawford Sellars, 21, M, W, farmer, ALGeorge W.

Mother's place of birth: TN> > I was pretty sure they were one and the same, but the period between 1860 and 1880 is 20 years, not ten, so James H. Sellers would have been age 61, not 51. Also, since George is listed as age 22 on the 1880 Freestone County, TX Census, he should have shown up in the household of the James H. Sellers on the 1860 Sebastian county, Sugarloaf Township. Unless, his full name was George Alfred Sellers and he is the 2 year old Alfred on the 1860 census. The problem with that is Alfred is listed as being born in AR, and George is listed as being born in AL, with his mother being born in AL, rather than NC.> > Like you, I have been unable to find any track of either James H. or Robert Sellers on the 1870 Census for either AR or TX.
