If the Adam Sellers you're seeking information for is the one I think he is, then I descend from him as well and have the line pretty well mapped. Would be happy to discuss and share the info with you. I'm curious, though, as to the info you have and its source that points to two Adam Sellers. You stated that the second Adam was also born 1742 in Clear Creek, Ohio. That isn't possible. Ohio didn't begin to be settled until after the Ordinance of 1787 that created the Northwest Territory, of which what is now Ohio was included. I think the "Clear Creek" you are referring to is the Clearcreek Township in Warren County, Ohio, which wasn't formed until circa 1803. I think you have essentially the right info but possibly just attributed to the wrong people. There were two Adam Sellers in the Clearcreek Township of Warren County, Ohio, however, one was the grandfather Adam (1742 - 1821) and the other was his grandson, also named Adam Sellers, via his 3rd son, Peter Sellers. The Jacob you mention was not Adam's son. He was the son of Adam's older brother, John Sellers. If you descend from Jacob, then Adam Sellers is not your 4 G grandfather. Also, the "Rockingham" you refer to is Rockingham County, Virginia, not West Virginia. The family settled in the Elkton and McGaheysville areas of Rockingham County, Virginia, prior to the near wholesale migration of all lines to Warren County, Ohio, and beyond. Gracie, please respond at your convenience with any and all questions that you have. I'd be more than happy to share with you what I have and to help get all the info and the family lines in order :-) As I said before, I descend from Adam and have both his lines as well as those of most of his siblings traced as well.
