He wrote the following to me, which verified my belief that the names I have (see below) are all children of George Sellers and Susannah Best, or perhaps the latter two boys(Abraham and Samuel) are grandchildren through Jacob or Michael. Note that Abraham is a family name; one of George Sr's brothers. " From the 1814 will of John Sellers (brother of George, probably unmarried) we know that George had two sons named Henry and John; and from John's estate record, purchasers listed were John, George, Elizabeth, Jacob, and Peggy Sellers. These are all potential names for George. Sr.'s children." also: from Lincoln Cty marriage records: Philip Cellars m. Barbara Fronebarger 16 Sept 1815, Jacob Sellars bondsman John Fronabarger m. Caty Sellers 11 May 1809 Georg Sellers m. Anna H. Froneberger 3 March 1818; John Sellers bondsman John Sellers m. Mary Rush 2 December 1818; Isaac Price bondsman Henry Beever m. Betcy Sellers 31 July 1815, Michael Sellers bondsman. John Baker m. Margaret Sellers 3 Jan 1816; Jacob Sellers bondsman. Jacob Baker m. Susannah Sellers, 10 Jun 1819; Henry Sellers bondsman. "Bondsmen were usually a relative who put up money for the marriage bond... I also have a memory of an Isaac Sellers from early Lincoln County records, but I could not at the moment find my documents on him...)" (Mel Green) (Note that there was an Isaac Sellers in Butler OH 1830- Tracy) Below is what I have in my file on the Sellers. Note that my connection is through the Rumple and Beaver lines. My gggg grandparents were Daniel Rumple and Mary Beaver, who were parents to Lydia Rumple, Abraham Sellers first wife, and Catherine Rumple, who was known to be connected to Henry Sellers. (ie this according to family legend, they had an ongoing affair, even though both spouses were living). Mary Beaver was an older sister to Henry Beaver, who married Elizabeth Sellers. Still more (quite unproven) family rumour has it that a Rumple cousin b 1780 married a Sellers, possibly in PA. The Rumples were from Northampton originally, the Beavers (Biebers) from an adjacent area in Berks. However it is unknown if they actually knew of each other before moving down to NC. They migrated down between 1785-1790. Daniel Rumple married Mary Beaver in 1792. The Beaver clan, along with many in-laws (Rumples, Hilemans) migrated out to Butler County between 1811-1817. They mostly settled in the german speaking settlement of Hanover Township and Ross, usually quite close to each other. Elizabeth Sellers and her husband were among them. I believe Abraham and Henry Sellers came out after 1822. About 1828-1833, several Beavers and related kin then moved out to Hamilton Cty, IN. Among them were Abraham Sellers/Lydia Rumple and Henry Beaver/Elizabeth Sellers. Notes for GEORGE SELLERS: Regarding the children I have listed for George and Susannah, the names mentioned were all present in some form of documentation in Lincoln County, NC (except for Abraham, who I am assuming). Whether these names were all children of George or perhaps children of an elder son of George is uncertain. The names Philip, John, Caty, George Jr and Henry are all believed to be offspring of George and Susannah. The other names for Michael, Jacob, Elizabeth, Margaret, Susannah, Abraham and possibly Samuel and Isaac were gleened from marriage records, or association to Lincoln, NC. (I found Samuel listed on an Ancestry site.) Children of GEORGE SELLERS and SUSANNAH BEST are: i. PHILLIP SELLERS, b. Abt. 1785; d. Abt. 1852; m. BARBARA FRONEBERGER, 16 September 1815. ii. MICHAEL SELLERS, b. Bet. 1785 - 1790; d. Aft. 1815. Notes for MICHAEL SELLERS: mentioned in an 1815 marriage record between Henry Beever and Betcy Sellers. I am assuming the relationship. There may have been a Michael Sellers living in Burke County in 1810. However there were several; perhaps cousins or offspring of an elder brother? iii. JACOB SELLERS, b. Bet. 1785- 1790; d.

His shop was near BUSENBARK's, on the farm now owned by Robert RICHTER. Horse Rangers became a popular organization and in Ohio were governed by Ohio Statutes enacted by the General Assembly that provided that "any number of persons not less than 15 ... residents of the state of Ohio" were authorized to become a group recognized "for the purpose of apprehending and convicting horse thieves and other felons including counterfeiters." Jeremiah Marston was the first president and Ezra Potter, the first secretary of the Madison group. During its early years the following men served as leaders (Captains): ..., Henry Sellers, ... from Madison Twp sketches, Butler County In 183?, Ezra Potter purchased a tract of land now known as the Henry SELLERS farm in Madison Township. There was a log cabin upon this land, and two or three acres partially cleared when he purchased it. Among the most important of churches in Ross Township has been the United Brethren, erected about 1822, on the hill above Millville, on the south side of the old dirt road. This house, like the one built in the village in 1851, was a brick building about thirty-six by forty feet. For many years this society was by odds the leading congregation in this vicinity. It led in membership the famous Bethel Society, until some ten years ago, when the latter organization took the lead, since which time it has held it.

Notes for WILLIAM HENRY BEAVER: "William H., returned home to manage his father's farm as Henry became older. Before he died, Henry gave each of his children some of his property, dividing the farm among the children, or rather giving them notes for $500 each, which were to stand as liens against his estate. Son William H. Beaver acquired his father's farm by paying off every note." email excerpts from dieckhorst@earthlink.net; Margie von Marenholtz William H. Beaver was one of the more prominent farmers of Hamilton County, Indiana. He was the last of nine children of Henry Beaver and Annie Sellers. His father remarried when he was two years of age and nine more children joined the household. William married two sisters, Catherine and Sarah Grice. No children were born to either union. In 1880, he and Sarah were living in Fall Creek township with Newton Craig, a nephew and an unknown laborer, whose name is undecipherable on the printed page of the census [to this family historian]. He lived between the dwellings of Joseph and Joshua Beaver. In his old age, his nephews took him to court to have him declared not competent to handle his affairs. A nephew took care of him for awhile and then returned control of his affairs. When William died, his two wives had already died. He excluded the children of his half-brothers and sisters from his vast estate, valued at $75,000 in 1917. Those children sued their cousins that were mentioned in the will. In July 1927, after ten years in litigation, the Indiana Supreme Court decided that Will Beaver's estate be distributed as he willed.

AL, thank you! Much more info than our extraction that showed a James Grissom listed and omitted the Benjamin Sellers as witness!! Is WINNY named as wife? Do you know where this family is in 1800 and 1810? You did receive papers on Simeon SELLERS Creek war? Good. Did you happen to order Mathew SELLERS file that was in same Company as Simeon? Wonder if he could be an older brother of Simeon 1797. Simeon 1748 does have a male u 16 on the 1790 census? Any ideas welcomed.

I haven't seen the records for "Elizabeth Galloway about 1778, Susan Unknown before 1790" The will is pretty straight forward dated: 26 Dec 1816. Simon wills to his wife "all Negroes that belonged to us when we was married" Ned, Amie, Jimmy, Phillis, Abram, Gary, Nancy and "to my two children Simion Sellers & Effy Gressom." To my son Simion one Negro woman named Edney with her two children Joe and Harriot. To my Daughter Effy Greissom (they were not consistent with spelling) one Negro woman named Judy and to my Son-in-Law William Greissom his note for $40. He appointed John E. Bate(?), John Cains and "my son Simion Sellers" as executors. He Signed the will which was witnessed by Benjamin Sellers, John X Savage and John Cains. The will was proved in the January term of the court. This really didn't allow him much time to travel to Texas, but you never know. I have seen a lot of other Sellers on the census and other documents but none that correlate time-wise as well as the Simeon Sellers who applied for the Creek War land grant in Alabama. It places him exactly in Brunswick, N.C. as being born there in 1797 and marrying Martha Ann Hewett, sister of Thomas Hewett as documented in the application. By Martha's account on the application he died in Holmes County, Florida in 1875.
