Travis, I note that you are referring to John Sellers born 1783 in Columbia, Tennessee, which is in Maury County. My Sellers are from Maury County, Tennessee, but not as early as 1783. Tell me what you know about your John Sellers and Robert Sellers that were born in Tennessee. I am a descendant of James T/Y Sellers that died in Chatham County, NC circa 1805 through his son, Isaac Sellers that married Judith Johnson. Isaac died in Maury County, TN in 1830. We have many Johns and Roberts that we don't know what happened to them.
