Harry O. b. 1 Jan 1883 (Il ) d. 20 Feb 1965. 4 Question. How did we get these? Ans> The original documentation came from Helen Siepker (descends from Susan [Sellers} Call) and Family who went to Cumberland County, PA and researched it. Question? Where did any Child marry and go to? Ans. From Helen Siepker> (also see above) The westward migration of Henry and Catherine Sellers and their Children began between 1836 & 1837. Eventually Susan (who married Dennis Call, in PA), John, Henry, David and Moses all purchased Land in Lawrence and Martin Counties, Indiana. In the 1850's, Catherine Sellers and Children Susan, John, David and Catherine and their Families, Jane, Elias, Simpson and George moved to Pike County, Illinois. Henry and Moses remained and spent the rest of their lives in Indiana. Scant evidence suggests Sallie also remained in Indiana. The only reference to her is in a Letter written in 1887 by Susan Call to her Brother in which she mentions Sallie's death. Question? > Also 1812 War of PA, do we have. Need. Ans.> I have no Information on that. Sincerely, Edward L. Sellers
