Gail, I see you listed Pearson's as one of the surnames you're researching! Can you tell me anything about them? My Eunice Sellers, who was the daughter of James Seller, and his wife, Charity, married a Charles Pearson. Just wondered if there might be a connection!

Sellers and Spicey Johnson. She was born in MS in the 1830's. She married Chesley J. Bush. Priscilla was on the 1880 Census with my grandmother Mildridge "Mellie" Bush listed as her 6 year old daughter (b, abt 1774). Chesley had died in the 1860's. So, my question is does anyone know who Mellie's father was?? Since Priscilla was a midwife, it's possible that one her Bush inlaws or some other young woman died during childbirth and Priscilla raised Mellie as her own daughter. The Ancestral line of Mellie Bush is the only thing I need to have my 12 generation tree completed. I really would be eternally grateful for any info leading me to her ancestors. > Gail Green > >
