Looking for the parentage of Burwell Sellars b. apx 1808 in SC--Married
Mahala Newman in Blount Cnty, AL in
3/8/29--d. apx 1860 in Williamson Cnty,
IL. We have the Selle(a)rs lineage
complete from him and his children, but
need to find out his lineage...HELP! Please email Carl Sellars at
carlsherry94@mindspring.com. If anyone needs anything after Burwell we
got
it...Thanks!
CARL - Thanks for staying in here!
Without a Will, We Need to find out Where Born in SC to Prove!
An 1810-1820 SC census - with child born 1800/1810 would be a good start.
He could possibly be in AL or ? in 1820, but since we have so few 1820
census-
Could use a war record with a Place info.
This StClair Co, Al with David and MARGARET SELLERS = we need more info
on
these SELLERS - are they connected to Barnwell Co, SC?
We don't have all the 1810/20 SC census - Could Anyone Send Some we don't
have OR send the ones you have extracted.
Did you study the neighbors in MS and see if any the same as in 1830/40
AL?
But, we even have some from TN here? Might ck for a Civil War file in IL?
But, I think our answer in Al or SC.

Help...we have struggled with the parentage of Burwell Sellars...born in
1808....married and Mahala Newman in Al...and from there a large family was
born. Believe Burwell to come out of the David Sellars line on 12 mile
river in Pendleton Co, SC...residing there at the same time were the Lights
(Mahala's mother was a Light), and the Newmans. If anybody has
anything on
Burwells family please respond...Thank You...Carl Sellars
CARL, Thanks. Do you have ANY info on SELLERS in Pendleton Co, SC?
marie,
iowa
Some of what is written here is “educated speculation”, some is fact…when it
is fact we will quote specific records.
We start with a David Sellars residing in Chatham County, NC…he lived on land adjoining James T/Y Sellars of Chatham County, NC. Was recorded in the NC Census of 1790…in numerous court records from 1775 to 1795…and when he sold his land in 1795.
Now appears a David Sellars buying land in Pendleton Dist, SC on the 12-mile creek/river…9 Dec 1797. this land also joined on Golding creek. Was witnessed by Willouby Pugh, David Pugh, and John Kirksey.
He is also a witness to a land deal on 13 Sept 1799 of an Enoch Smith on Golding and Rice creeks.
Recorded in the Federal Census…SC…Pendleton Dist. Of 1800.
Now we have a Young Sellars witnessing a land deal on 8 March 1808. Between a Charles Hunt Jr and a Richard Nall on Conneross creek.
We also have recorded of a Jacob Light living on 12 Mile creek/river adjoining land with a Nathaniel Newman living in very close proximity to David Sellars. We also know that Jacob Light is the father of one Temperance Light who married a James Newman and had a child, Mahala Newman, who later married a Burwell Sellars in Al…Burwell and Mahala list their state of birth as SC.
Our speculation is that David in the brother of James Y/T and father of Young Sellars in SC…by name assc. In addition, date assc and location of the families…this is our “guess” but we are looking for any other records of these Sellars/Sellers…. to confirm or deny our thoughts. If you have any other questions, my father, Carl Sellars, has a toll free number (1-888-893-2163) and would be very glad to answer and converse with you on this matter. I am merely Carl Sellars, son, and computer liaison.
Thank you for your time.

Carl, I don't know any male
Sellers from the Isaac Sellers and Judith
Johnson line. I put up a request on the List and have
had no response.
If we had a DNA test on a
descendant of Robert Sellers Jr. and Sarah
Hall it would help. Robert Sellers Jr and Isaac Sellers are
first
cousins.
If what you are telling me
about your Young Sellers being a son of David
Sellers and David is a son
of Robert, son of John. I would
venture to
say that John would be the
missing brother of Robert Sellers Sr. of
Burke County, NC and James
T/Y Sellers of Chatham County, NC.
Do you
know anything about this
John Sellers? What happened to
John's son,
Robert?

of Chatham County, NC
Nice to meet you Georgia;
I've never had the nerve to
draw up ancestor charts of my Sellars
family....I'm aware of both
young Sellars you mentioned. my Young
Sellars is a confirmed son
of David and Judith's Sellars. Judith's will
named Young as her son and
probate records of the will confirmed her
Young Sellars as living is
Jackson county, al. Believe your Isaac
Sellars Sr. is a son of
James T and Patience Sellars. I believe my
David, father of Young is a
nephew of James T Sellars. I believe David's
father is Robert #1 of John
here are the names of the original adult
Sellars men of orange
county, NC beginning in the mid 1750's
Thomas,James T.,John, Robert
and Sampson, all of whom are closely
related,,,Texas Tom and I
only recently confirmed our relationship with
research and DNA match.
(GGG) Young Sellars of Jackson county AL. is
our
common Ancestor. Georgia,
would a Sellars male from your line be willing
to have DNA testing?? Thanks
for your E-mail...Carl Sellars, PS I'm from
Union County IL, although my
early Sellars line lived in Williamson Co.

To Carl Elbert Sellars of
Williamson County, IL:
Also to Thomas W. Sellars of
Walker County, TX
I was looking at your
ancestor charts and note that you have Young
Sellers from Chatham County,
NC as your 3rd great grandfather.
The only
Young Sellers that I know
that was in Chatham was the son of James Y/T
Sellers and was still living
in Chatham County, NC in the 1850 census.
Deed Records show that James
Y/T Sellers had dealings with a David
Sellers but I do not know
who he is. David Sellers is
possibly the son
of James Y/T Sellers that
died in Chatham circa 1805. Are
you sure that
David had a son named Young?
Here are the known children
of James T/Y Sellers (I have often wondered
if the name is James Young
Sellers):
James T/Y Sellers born circa
1735 Scotland or England died 1805 Chatham
County, North Carolina
married Patience Parker, who
died 1812 in Maury County, Tennessee
Known children:
James Sellers, Jr. born abt
1756;
Robert Sellers born abt 1765
married Sarah Bynum;
Ruth Sellers born abt 1768
married Isham Bilbrey;
Isaac Sellers, Sr. abt 1769
Orange County, NC died 1830 Maury County,
Tennessee married Judith
Johnson, this is my Sellers line;
John Sellers born abt 1770
NC died 1824 Maury County, TN married
Elizabeth Hart;
Laird Sellers born 13 Dec
1771 Chatham County, NC died 1862 Moniteau
County, Missouri married
Anne Hackney and #2 Elizabeth Goodwin;
Patience Sellers born abt
1774 Chatham County, NC died abt 1812 Maury
County, TN; married Wiley
Griffin;
Rachel Sellers born abt 1775
Chatham County, NC , died Overton County,
TN, married John Hammock;
Young Sellers born abt 1784
Chatham County, NC, died 1850-1860 Chatham
County, NC married Elizabeth
Hackney;
The name Young Sellers is a
family name used by both James T/Y Sellers
and his brother Robert
Sellers that lived in Burke County, NC.
I would like to know more
about your Young Sellers to see if we can tie
the families together.
