No, I don´t think so. I think the Grainger Co. TN Seller´s, the ones that have been mixed up with this bunch in NC, are of the PA line of Phillip Sellers, 2 of whose sons, John and George, ended up in Lincoln Co. NC. Did you see my mail from yesterday where I provided links from the Sellers pages, discussing this?
