Boyd was possibly in the military. You could try to look up WWI draft registration for him in Virginia.

The family listed below is that of Jerome H.B. Sellers' nephew, John Samuel Sellers. I mentioned in the last email that Jerome H.B. Sellers had an older brother named James Montgomery Sellers (1837-1871). James Montgomery Sellers was married to Mary Berry (1841 - 1920). Both are buried in the Augusta Stone Church cemetery, New section, in Ft. Defiance, (Augusta County), Virginia. John Samuel Sellers (1868 - 1910) was a son of James Montgomery and Mary (Berry) Sellers. Dr. John Samuel Sellers married Rosa Root (1871 - 1957), whom you have listed below for 1920 Augusta County, VA, Beverly Manor. The children listed, Louisa, Helen, and Janie were daughters of Dr. John Samuel and Rosa (Root) Sellers. Dr. J.S. Sellers died in 1910 at the relatively young age of 42, but I don't have any info pointing to the cause(s). Of the daughters listed, Louise M. Sellers died in 1973. I don't believe she ever married. Helen (1901 - 1972) married Mark W. Lewis (1902 - 1970). Janie (Jane) married Boyd Van Pelt. I don't know why Boyd wasn't listed or where he was at the time which would have caused Jane to be living at home in 1920. Boyd and Jane had two sons, so I'm sure they can be found together in later Census records. All of these family members, except for Boyd and Jane Van Pelt, are buried together in Plots #132 A-I in the Augusta Stone Church cemetery in/near Ft. Defiance, Virginia. This info is off the top of my head, so I don't have anything in front of me detailing where Jane Van Pelt is buried. Hope that helps :-) Michael -----Original Message----- From: Georgia Fletcher [mailto:chick@blzwire.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 09:56 AM To: SELLERS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [SELLERS] 1920 Augusta County, Virginia Michael, who is this? 1920 Augusta County, Virginia Beverly Manor Rosa R.
