Harry- I am confused. Andrew M. Sellers was born about 1774. I thought you were interested in Capt. John SELLERS (1718-1800), the father of Andrew M. Sellers . I wanted to know the source for your use of the initial "W". In my opinion "W" is possible, as I believe he is related to William Seller(s), (born England- about 1637) (the original emigrant from England to Isle of Wight Co., VA in about 1654). Yes, there are to many John Sellers to make sense of this. I would like to see your file.
