BARBARA, I am kinda wondering if you rec'd my letter below and perhaps you replied and I deleted ? Need some answers or Any info you have on ANY family members. marie, iowa === Mon 4/2/2007 9:56 PM BARBARA, thanks. We/I have worked some on these families, but NO PROVEN parents . Do you have complete will copies and probate papers? (we/I only have extractions) WOULD like to see ALL papers of same. Do you have Civil War info? Did he /her draw a pension? Relation may be witness. I believe we know he is a son of JANE OR ANN MERRITT SELLERS. And a Grandson of Daniel and Mary Murfree MERRITT. Is Daniel a son or brother of JACOB MERRITT where he was married in 1801 with ABRAHAM SELLERS attending? (Rev War files of Daniel Merritt) I believe we have Two in 1800 Sampson Co., NC, one older. And I don't have a chart on either one. Do you? What census extractions do you have = Also, need Amariah SELLERS kids names and where they went and married. I believe I saw most to 1900? except 1870? WE will help where we can, but, haven't followed thro enough OR just ran out of info. I do have land records of Sampson/Duplin which I haven't extracted MERRITT info. Do you have? Most of mine before 1800/ etc. I have NOT been in contact with MERRITT families for several years, they may have new info? When did you check? Send what you can. And Thanks for sharing SELLERS. marie, iowa -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2007 1:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [SELLERS] amariah sellers My GG grandfather was Amariah Sellers from the Taylors Bridge area of Duplin/Sampson Co. NC. He was born about 1845 enlisted in the civil war in 1861 then moved to Duval Co. Florida after the was and married my GG Grandmother Rebeccah Moore. He died in about 1904 in Duval Co. Florida. I would like to know who Amariah's parents were. Family documents call his father "Jerdin" but I can find no evidence of such a person. I have also found a will for the Merritt family in NC that references Amariah as a grandchild. Does anyone have additional info. on this family? Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
