    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JWGBAEB/1299.1.1.1.1.2.1.1.1.2.1 Message Board Post: Hi Paula Since Hilliard was in Tuscaloosa in the 1830s along with Gurley Sellers of Nash, Jack Sellers and I think there is a strong chance they are brothers. I have seen birth dates for Hilliard between 1797 and 1804. I notice there is a Lucinda Sellers b in Tuscaloosa 1833. Lucinda, Louvinia, Tallulah are all Sellers family girl names. http://www.rootsweb.com/~scsparta/marthamorris.htm In an old Bible record there is said to have been 10 brothers total in that generation In "The Sellers Letters" in June, 1984 by Charles A. Sellers, grandson of Jordan Sellers, he lists some of the siblings as Mary, Martha, Samuel, Gurley, Bennett and Jordan. 4-5 names of brothers are still unidentified. ( 8 of them were supposedly still in the Carolinas while Gurly was in Alabama by 1836.) Later Gurley has a grandson with a middle name Hilliard. I forget if it was James Hilliard or William Hilliard Sellers. Two Sellers brothers were living next to each other and one went by the name Hillard or Hilliard that census. The Glover family was connected to the Sellers family and they also used the name Hilliard. 1. William S. Sellers married Mary Sherrod in Nash Co NC 2. Samuel Sellers married Sarah Rogers in Person Co. NC (was formed from Edgecomb Co. Granville Co is between it and Franklin Co. -maybe they married at her grandmother?s house. 3. Bennett ?Long? Sellers married Winny Rogers 7 March 1821 Franklin Co NC 4. Manuel ?Short? Sellers (Emanuel) married Fanny Rogers 1 June, 1825 in Franklin NC. Witness John Rogers and JJ Cothran 5. Gurley Sellers married Delilah Wyatt 31 January 1826 in Nash Co.-witneses Jourdan Sellers and Larry Brantley 6. Jourdan Sellars married Elizabeth Mason 5 Nov. 1828 in Nash, NC moved to Wake Co NC then Guilford NC (Quaker conclave where a son was listed in the Guilford Meeting)and finally Greenup, Cumberland Co, Illinois and then Indiana. 7. possibly Hilliard George Sellers 8. 9. 10. 11. Lucinda Sellers (Emanuel`s sister) married Fanny?s brother John Rogers. 12. Tallula Sellers (Emanuel`s sister) married Larry Brantley-son of Sherrod Brantley and stayed in NC. (Larry Brantley Residence: 1830 - Ferrills, Nash, North Carolina) 13. Mary Sellers 14. Martha Sellers By 1840 Bennett and Manuel had moved to Spartanburg SC. In 1850 they appear under their nicknames Short b 1800 and Long Sellers b 1787. After 1856 Emanuel and son Henderson Sellers left SC and went thru Tenn. to Guntersville AL by 1857 with the help of their uncle Gurley Sellers who came up to Tenn from Tuscaloosa to meet themhelping bring the wagons down southward after a winter pause (I assume) and then to Shades Valley and Elyton in Jefferson County and Shelby Co, presumably after they acquired land. They had one of the first 6 houses in the Shades Valley.

Surnames: sellers Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JWGBAEB/1299.1.1.1.1.2.1.1.1.2 Message Board Post: Susan, according to the records I have found, Hilliard was from Anson City, NC and Racel was born in Lexington City or Orangeburg SC. Some message boards I have seen believe that Hilliard's father was the son of Richard Sellers. They say Richard was a regular in the War of 1812 and that he had a brother named Howard. I am really interested in finding out who Hilliard's parents are and were they actually came from. Any idea where or how I could find this information? It is like it just stops and Hilliard. Thanks for the information on Black Dutch. I see that Rachels father John M. Snider was born in SC and that his father was born in Switzerland and both of John's grandparents were born in Switzerland. as for Rachels mother Susannah Oswalt she was born in SC and her father John George Oswalt was born in SC, but her mother Barbara Dickert was born in Mannheim, Germany. Is it possible that if there was Cherokee blood, it could have come from the Sellers side? When they moved he! re to Tuscaloosa,AL, I spoke with a Lavon Sellers that lives near Hilliard and Rachel's home place (he actually lives in what they call Sellers Town) and he said that his parents and grandparents said that an Indian tribe actually lived were his house and land is and that you can actually find all kinds of indian artifacts. I ask Lavon questions about the Sellers family, but he really did not know much. I am really a beginner at this, I have been researching for about seven months or so and any information you can share with me, would be greatly appreciated. If you would like Susan, you may email at my email address [email protected] Thanks again

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Sellers Oswalt Oswald Snider Schneider Sneider Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JWGBAEB/1299.1.1.1.1.2.1.1.1 Message Board Post: In Switzerland Snider is SChneider and Oswalt is Oswald. Do you know what part of NC they came from?, as the Sellers I have are from Nash and Edgecomb area. The Brantleys of Nash were descended from Black Dutch in NC. In the old days when people say he or she was French or German or Black Dutch or English, they only mean that they were descended from people who were born there-maybe several generations before. So for instance Rachel could have had an Indian mother and Oswalt was only the grandson of a Black Dutch which really is Deutsch which means German. Schwarze Deutsche or Black Germans or Black Dutch, found along the Danube River in Austria and Germany, in the Black Forest and, to a lesser extent, along the Rhine River, have dark hair and eyes, unlike the fairer people both north and south of them. Their descendants in America may be called either Black Dutch or Black German. The origin of their dark coloration is ancient, from the Roman army in the third and fourth centuries, C.E. The Roman army of this time period was mostly made up of German mercenary soldiers, but along the German border, the Romans preferred to station non-Germans. The army on the Danube was mostly drawn from Garamante soldiers. The Garamante (called Tubu now) were Black Africans from the central Sahara. Now the Tubu live in northern Chad, eastern Niger and southern Libya. They are not usually found north of Marzuk in Fezzan or Kufra in Cyrenaica now, but in Roman times they ranged north to the central coast of Libya and to Ghadames in southern Tunis! ia. As well as Garamante, there were some Iranic people stationed on this frontier, especially Sarmatians (called Ossets now) and Scythians (Ashkenazi in the Hebrew Bible) from southern Russia and the Ukraine (Ashkenaz, the old Hebrew for Scythia, has been used for Germany in modern Hebrew by Ashkenazic Jews trying to ingratiate themselves with Germans and Austrians or trying to hide their Khazar ancestry). These African and Iranic soldiers left many descendants who tend to have black, heavy hair and dark eyes even yet. Beethoven and Hitler are two famous examples of this group (Peanuts). It is interesting to imagine Hitler's reaction to someone telling him he probably got his heavy, black hair from Black African ancestry. Since this was so long ago, with population movement and inter-marriage, all Europeans must have some ancestry from these Black African soldiers. In sixty generations, a person could leave 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 descendants with just two children per person each generation so long as no descendants married each other. Obviously, after a time, many descendants will marry each other, but still it works out statistically that most people from that long ago who left descendants at all are ancestors of everyone in Europe today. The tendency for people to stay in their own community explains why we can see the effects along the Danube and in the Black Forest in the people with black hair and dark eyes but do not see it far away like Iceland. The concentration is far greater! at the point of origin, but the dispersion radiates out to everywhere given enough time. 4. Tziganes or, more commonly (but erroneously), Gypsies, are another group called Black Dutch in America. A Tzigane from Germany, who could speak German, could be accepted much better by saying he was Black Dutch than if he admitted to being Gypsy. Tziganes were called Gypsies because of the mistaken belief they came from Egypt. At other times and places, they were called Bohemians (as in La Boheme) because they were thought to be from what is now the Czech Republic. Their language is called Romany, sometimes attributed to their self-given name of Rom (or Dom) but more likely because they were thought to be from Romania. In actuality, they come from the Indus valley area of Pakistan and western India, their language is Indic, their traditional religion a form of Hinduism. The name Rom or Dom comes from the Sanskrit word Domba, meaning low caste ("untouchable") musician. Tzigane, which has cognates in most European languages including Russian and Turkish, is derived from the! Sanskrit name of their caste in ancient India. Words for Tzigane in a few languages: English = Tzigane; French = Tzigane; Russian = Tsygan Dutch = Zigeuner; German = Zigeuner; Hungarian = Cigany Italian = Zingaro; Spanish = Gitano; Rumanian = T¸igan Turkish = Çingene; Polish = Cygan; Czech = Cikan There is already an excellent site on Tziganes as Black Dutch in America: Wayfaring Stranger by Linda Griggs. It also tells about their connections with the Melungeons. Please see: Part One at http://foclark.tripod.com/gypsy/Patrin1.htm Part Two at http://foclark.tripod.com/gypsy/Patrin2.htm. 5. Dutch and Belgian Jews were sometimes called Black Dutch in America because they spoke Dutch or Flemish and were darker than the other Dutch and Flemish. They had only recently moved to the Netherlands and Belgium (then Spanish Netherlands) from Iberia (Portugal and Spain). When Spain annexed Portugal for a while, many Portuguese Jews fled to Spanish Flanders to escape the Inquisition (see http://www.theotherside.co.uk/tm-heritage/background/flanders.htm for Flanders as part of Spanish Netherlands). Most, like the famous philosopher Baruch Spinoza, crossed into Protestant Netherlands for greater freedom of expression and religion (see http://users.erols.com/jyselman/ for more on Spinoza). These Sephardic Jews were, on the average, darker than the Ashkenazic Jews of northern Europe, so an explanation like Black Dutch suited them well. 6. Mulattos, Quadroons, Octaroons and other mixed children of German, Dutch or Flemish fathers who appeared mostly White, but were too dark, would use the term in order to live in White society. Of course, they frequently learned the term from one of the other types of Black Dutch and then would sieze it as their own. How many people were in each of these groups, I have no idea. But there are a lot of people finding ancestors called Black Dutch, so there could have been a sizeable number in any of them. 7. I have found a Mailing List (discussion group) on the Black Dutch in America. This group seems to mostly be Native American or part Native American whose ancestors said they were Black Dutch in order to be accepted as White at a time when people were denied their rights and rejected for being part Indian.

He was 8 years old at the time - It's a word perfect attachment to an email response I received from the reservation on Annette Island. If you'd like a copy, I'll be glad to forward it to you, but I'll need your email address. I was wondering if you have any records of the students who attended school at Metlakatla? I'm also looking for a Simon. His last name was Clark - he may be the Simon listed with the Reece family on this same list. Looking forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Debbie Wilkening of Wisconsin

    3. I have no idea where this would fit in, but in DeKalb, Bowie Co., TX there is a Vester and an Ollie. I do not remember their last names, but it's a very small town and those are unusual names.

I copied it to hard copy. I think Jr. & Sr. is related. I have a 1900 census report from Jefferson County, Al that has a Henry Sellars born in SC age 58 and Elizabeth Sellars born in Al. age 58 with a son Vester age 17 born in Al. I think this is my Great-Grandfather. His name was Sylvester or S V Sellers. I know the census has the spelling different. He married Ollie Meeks in 1905. They had three children John Frank, Bertha Mae (my Grandmother), and Evans B. 1906, 1907, and 1917. Ollie died Dec. 1921 and is buried at Elmwood Cemetery Block 20, in Jefferson County. She is buried with Vaughns (do not know why). Sylvester remarried after Ollie died but I have not been able to find out to whom. I beleive he died in 1947 but have not found his grave site. If you have any other info I would be gld to have all you can find. Thank you.
