JOHN, thanks. I have no info, but, yours on our SELLERS in INDIA. This is an area of ASIA? I did make a link to this area for others to find and I hope this helps. ANY info/documents you want to send, we can post to this area, like, census, marriages, deaths, etc. DID any of these come to US? Where did your SELLERS come from before INDIA? THANKS for sharing SELLERS. marie, iowa -----Original Message----- From: John Gannon [mailto:jgannon@oakschool.co.uk] Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 5:05 PM To: marie sellers hollinger Subject: Family news Dear Mari, Thank you for your email: I am sending my original email again, with updates, which may be of interest to you. "Dear Mari, I have only just come across your email and the Sellers Family website/forum and wondered if I could put some more names into the mix. My great uncle, Dennis George Gannon (b in India 13th Jan 1857, d 14th April 1895) married Ellen Sellers in India, probably Secunderabad, about 1880. They had one son, Sidney Esper Clement Gannon, who was born in July 1889 and died 14th Nov 1918. I know absolutely nothing about this Ellen Sellers, so any information would be gratefully received. Meanwhile would these snippets be of interest to anyone? From various websites I have the following Sellers in India, mainly Madras presidency; 1804 Thomas Sellers, Private in the Scots brigade (HM 94th Regiment) to India 1817 Leonard Sellers married Bridget Hannah, 19th Jan 1831 Mrs B Sellers (dau of the late Capt Joseph Hannah) married A.D.Souza Esq, in Calcutta 1844 Ann Sellers(dau of Mr T Sellers, draftsman Military Board office) buried 8th June 1844, aged 1 yr 4mths 11days 1852 Caroline Sellers buried 1856 William Sellers buried 1857 William Sellers married Ann Thomas 1861 Thomas W Sellers married Anne 1861 Lilla JMSellers born 1864 William AO Sellers born 1866 Eva JJ Sellers born 1869 William I.B.

William Sellers....64th Foot (2nd Staffordshire) You are very welcome to pass on my email address. I hope I have not impinged too much on your time and goodwill. Best wishes, John Gannon " An update and a correction to my email of March 12th...did you receive it? I don't think it was Ellen Sellers that Denis George Gannon married, unless he married a sister of his first wife: his wife Ellen Gannon died at 21 of sunstroke on 21-2-1879 his second wife Lilla Jane Mary Gannon died 18-4-1894 aged 32 years and 7 months of diarrehoea and fever Sidney Esper Clement Gannon b July 1889, d 14-11-918 was a result of this marriage. I note from another website that a Lilla JM Sellers was born in 1861. I have the above information from IOR death records. Best wishes, John Gannon ...and a further update! Lilla Mary SELLERS -Gannon: was born 29-9-1861, christened 23-11-1861 at Chudderghat, Tamil Nadu, India. Chaplain H.Pigot James Parents:William Frederick SELLERS (Assistant Apothecary in the Hyderabad Contingent ) and Sarah Louisa Jemima....maiden name? William and Sarah had at least one other child: William Frederick Rickworth SELLERS, born 24-9-1869, christened 5-12-69 at Chudderghat, chaplain AJ Bartlett (William Frederick died before his son was born- he had become Senior Assistant Surgeon in the Nizam's infantry) I found another SELLERS entry,too: William Sellers died of convulsions aged 14 months on 1-12-1836 son of William Sellers (bombardier in "A" Company...I think that is what it said) and his wife Rebecca. Chaplain: Richard Firth If I discover anything further, I will let you know. Best wishes, John G
