    3. Gracie, I located the census image you were mentioned earlier for Elizabeth Sellers. The listing for the household began at the very bottom of page 193B with Henry Sellers and continued at the top of page 194A with Elizabeth Sellers (Series: M432, Roll: 974, Page 194). The Elizabeth Sellers and Henry Sellers listed in the household were not married. They were brother and sister. A 3rd sibling, Mary (Sellers) Sowers, was living next door with her husband, Jacob Sowers. Elizabeth was born Nov. 1, 1791, near McGaheysville in Rockingham county, VA, and died there on June 4, 1884, at the age of 92. She is buried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery in McGaheysville. She never married. The 3 mentioned siblings, Elizabeth, Henry, and Mary, were the children of Henry Sellers, Sr., (ca 1766 - June 1843) and Mary Magdalene HEDRICK (? - after 1841). A 4th sibling, John Conrad Sellers (March 11, 1797 - January 19, 1872) was my 3 great grandfather. The final two children were Polly (Sellers) Burner and Anna Persilla (Sellers) Maggard. Of the four daughters, Polly died at the age of 94, Elizabeth at the age of 92, Mary at the age of 94, and Anna Persilla at the age of 89. Hope that helps in some way.
