Most of my Sellers information comes from Mary Marie Koontz Arrington's book, Zellers-Sellers Genealogy. I don't have a copy of their marriage license, but the marriage information does come from Rockingham County marriage records (i.e., my notes). I do not have information on the children of Dianah Sellers and William Baker, except for my ancestor, Elizabeth Baker, who married Peacy Derrow. They were my 2nd great grandparents. My information on Dianah Sellers' siblings and her parents is summarized below. Modified Register for Conrad Sellers First Generation 1. Conrad Sellers died about 1806/1810. He had the following children: + 2 M i. Conrad Sellers Second Generation 2. Conrad Sellers (Conrad). See Dianah Sellers's notes. Conrad married1 Mary Layman on 19 Apr 1806 in Rockingham County, Virginia. See Dianah Sellers's notes. Conrad and Mary had the following children: 3 F i. Didama Sellers was born2 on 22 Jul 1807 in Rockingham County, Virginia. She died on 22 Apr 1845 in Rockingham County, Virginia. She was buried in Armentrout (old Dutch) Church Cemetery (now Bethel), Rockingham County, Virginia. 4 M ii. William Allison Sellers "Al" was born3 about 1808 in Rockingham County, Virginia. He died4 about 1870/1880 in Rockingham County, Virginia. + 5 F iii. Dianah Sellers was born on 1 Mar 1810. She died on 24 Feb 1869. 6 F iv. Deliah Sellers was born5 about 1810/1811 in Rockingham County, Virginia. She died after 1870. 7 M v. Joseph Jacob Sellers was born about 1814 in Rockingham County, Virginia. He died in 1900 in Washington County, Tennessee. He was buried in Fairview Cemetery, Washington County, Tennessee. Third Generation 5. Dianah Sellers (Conrad, Conrad) was born on 1 Mar 1810.
