Marie and Brenda: Calvin Sellers/Sellars was not from Banks County, Georgia, but from Spartanburg, S.C. I believe that Calvin Sellars father was Robert Elonzo Sellars from Spartanburg. I have done little research on the Spartanburg Sellars family, and my first cousin, Mildred Westbrook Sellars married Calvin's son, Fred Sellars.
