Notes for Noah Rhodarmer:
NOAH RHODARMER, by Hazel Lee
(Gossett) Wright, Sanford Webster Brown, and Mary Martha (Nieblas)
Brown
Noah Rhodarmer was the oldest son of Henry (1797-1836) and
Elizabeth
(1796-1865) Rhodarmer. It is thought that Elizabeth was a Sellers.
On
December 29, 1840, Noah married Mary
married, Noah started making entries in his family
Bible.
There are many variations of the family name. It is thought that
since, at
one time, the name had been Anglicized to Redsleeves that this was
a good
indication the family's occupation in the "Old" country was meat
cutter or
butcher. Another thought is that this family is connected to the
meat
packing family of Armour.
Noah had two known siblings: Phillip
(1821-1876) who married Malinda
Christopher; and John (1826-1859) who married
Rebecca Zilla Kinsland.
According to the 1830 Census, Noah also probably had
two sisters. Records
have been found regarding the marriage of Mary Radornel
to Joshua Kinsland
and of Susanah Rhodearmel to George Moore. So far we have
not been able to
connect these lines. In 1849 Noah acted as bondsman for Jane
Moore and
Joseph Christopher.

Jethro Baxter (1860-1927) who married Amanda Cook; and
an unnamed son
(1862-1863).
A great-grandson of Noah's is Air Force

his death date and something here is just not right. If he died in 1888, where was he on the
1870 and 1880 census?

December 29, 1840 in Haywood County, North Carolina. She was born January 01, 1822 in Haywood
County, North Carolina, and died September 17, 1900 in Haywood County, North
Carolina.
Notes for Noah
Rhodarmer:
NOAH RHODARMER, by Hazel Lee
(Gossett) Wright, Sanford Webster Brown, and Mary Martha (Nieblas)
Brown
Noah Rhodarmer was the
oldest son of Henry (1797-1836) and Elizabeth (1796-1865) Rhodarmer. It is thought that Elizabeth was a
Sellers. On December 29, 1840, Noah
married Maryann Henson. When Noah
and Maryann married, Noah started making entries in his family
Bible.
There are many variations of
the family name. It is thought that
since, at one time, the name had been Anglicized to Redsleeves that this was a
good indication the family's occupation in the "Old" country was meat cutter or
butcher. Another thought is that
this family is connected to the meat packing family of
Armour.
Noah had two known
siblings: Phillip (1821-1876) who
married Malinda Christopher; and John (1826-1859) who married Rebecca Zilla
Kinsland. According to the 1830
Census, Noah also probably had two sisters. Records have been found regarding the
marriage of Mary Radornel to Joshua Kinsland and of Susanah Rhodearmel to George
Moore. So far we have not been able
to connect these lines. In 1849
Noah acted as bondsman for Jane Moore and Joseph
Christopher.
Noah and Maryann had: Margiman Henry (1842-1865); John Griffin
(1843-1865); William Kimzy (1845-1925) who married 1st Manerva Smathers, 2nd
Elmira Catherine Bonham; Phillip Jasper (1847-1848); Harry Labury (1849-1873);
Harriet Elizabeth (1841-1923) who married William P. Abbott; Mary Vianann
(1853-1908) who married Merit Jasper Smathers; Nancy Adeline (1855-1857); Jethro
Baxter (1860-1927) who married Amanda Cook; and an unnamed son
(1862-1863).
A great-grandson of Noah's
is Air Force Major General Roger Kim Rhodarmer. A great-great-grandson is popular
Asheville radio personality, Scotty Rhodarmer.
Noah (1817-1887) and Maryann
(1822-1900) are buried at Morning Star Church Cemetery, Canton, North
Carolina.

Now, this deed is hard to

child of their family) I have no

cannot find where they are buried.

Found in Ed Sellers papers
when he died: "John Henry
Sellers was born May 12, 1848. He married Elizbeth Bentley and they had 10
children. Their oldest child was a son named Conrad Mitchell Sellers. There were
5 other sons and 4 daughters.
Records indicate that John
Henry Sellers enlisted as a private late in the war. He joined Company B of the
11th regiment in the spring of 1864, at the age of 16. Enlistment was for one
(1) year, and he was still active when the war ended in 1865. The 11th regiment
blended with the 47th and 5th regiments late in the war. Some reports indicate
that he was present with a brother who died in a war hospital near
Cassitville.
Following the end of the
war, John Henry Sellers returned to the Surrency, GA.
area.
His wife received $60.00 per
year pension pay for Confederate Soldiers until her death in 1926", per Deb
Sannutti. ****ANOTHER SPECIAL NOTE****:
None of her Ancestors have ordered her Pension Record. Another question I have, is how did she
receive a pension when she died before John Henry did?

Dear Great
Grandfather:
Your tombstone stands among
the rest;
Neglected and
alone.
The name and date are
chiseled out
On polished, marbled
stone.
It reaches out to all who
care
It is too late to
mourn.
You did not know that I
exist
You died and I was
born.
Yet each of us are cells of
you
In flesh, in blood, in
bone.
Our blood contracts and
beats a pulse
Entirely not our
own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you
filled
One hundred years
ago
Spreads out among the ones
you left
Who would have loved you
so.
I wonder if you lived and
loved,
I wonder if you
knew
That someday I would find
this spot,
And come to visit
you.

Martha Ann King Kent, a
descendant of James Leonard Sellers told me this story, March 1,
2000:
"James Leonard Sellers died
a young man. He was on a wagon and
a bridge fell in. He jumped into
the water to save the horses and wagon, took pneumonia and died shortly
thereafter. His wife had to
petition the court for her minor children as their guardian. She was also raising her granddaughter,
Lillie Funk when she died. Lillie's
mother had died and her father decided to take Lillie away with him. She didn't know him and wanted my
grandfather to take her away. He
and his sister, Nancy Jenia, left the area and went to Arkansas. He lived there several years and got a
letter from a cousin in Haywood County, so they moved to Cruso, North Carolina,
where he met and married my grandmother.
He remained there until he died.
Lillie met grandmother's brother, Lonnie Cogburn and they married... So,
Lillie is both a cousin and an Aunt.
She is still living at age 105 years old. She can't see or hear, but otherwise in
good health, a real cutie."

Dear Bro.
I am writing to let
you know we are all well, & hope you all the same. May was down here about 3
week ago and carrid us down to see Mary She had been very bad off with
Rheumatism but was some better then.
You remember we was
talking about tracing our kin back to Revoultionary War when you was over here
the last time So Ola & any of the rest of our girls could join the D. A. R.
Society, and since then Ola wrote to the Media Research Bureau. at Washington
City & got the history of the Prince and Sellers which Says Capt. Asa Prince
of Mass. & Capt Sylvanus of Va. and Frank Prince and Liutenent Thomas Prince
of S. C. fought in the war. And it says the given names of their Sons was John
Richard Thomas Isaac Joseph, Job, Nathen, Benjamin, Samual, James and Robert,
& evidently Frank or Thomas was our great Grand Father and which ever it he
was, James (Grand Pa) and Uncle Joseph Prince
It does not Name the
Girls names. Now do you supose their is any record at Pendleton of the wills of
these Men naming their Children or where their wills was probated. Grand Pas
toomb Stone at Hazel Church Says Grand Pa was born 1781 and died Nov 1863 and
was 82 years old and Grand Ma born 1789 and died Nov 12, 187(illigible). The war
ended in 1781 So I figure Frank or Thomas was our Great Grand Father. Let me
know what you think about it.
The Sellers history
Says Names of the officers who was in the war was Lutenant John Sellers of Pa.
The given names of the Sellers families was Samuel Thomas Adam John Paul Philip
Hans Henry Peter and Jacob So I figure that Lt. John Sellers was our Great Grand
Father and that his son John was our Grand Father and that Uncle John Sellers
Uncle Coona & Pa and Uncle Uncle Jake & Ephriam was Grand Pas Sons and
Aunts ------------ Christopher and ------------ Dave Sharp and Aunt Sarah
Sellers was the Girls There was Several amigrants came from England but they was
(illegible) English but 2 Germans & thir Familys came and landed at
Philadelphia and one went to Mayorland and one went up the State the State of Pa
and Settled in 1737 at a place called Francona Pa his name Phillip Henry
Sellers. and he was the Father of 11 children Linwood, Phillip Henry, John,
Paul, Peter, Jacob Elisabeth Margarett & Mary So John must have been the one
who Served as Lutenant in the War and the Father of Grand Pa Sellers and Says
one Sellers Marred a Christopher and a Schnider (Snider) There seems to be
Several ways of spelling the names but have been boild down to Sellars and
Sellers.
Now all the rest of
the Familys but this one Settled in other States, the one that come with our
Great Grand Father left Pa & went to Mayorland when you answer this give me
our Aunts given names Aunt Christopher & Sharp you need not write so much as
I have but say what you think

Article from Spartanburg
Journal
dated June 15th 1911
DEAD BODY THAT OF JOHN
SELLERS
Identification Established
by Clothes He Wore
That the mangled body of a
dead man found on the tracks of the southern Railway near King's Mountain last
Sunday morning was that of John Sellars of this city has been defininately
established. The body will be
brought to Spartanburg for burial.
I dentification was established when the clothes were sent to Mrs.
Sellars of this city who stated that they were those of her son.
Sellers disappeared from his
home at Woffard Street last Saturday morning. When his mother read in Monday's
Journal that the dead body of an unknown white man had been found on the
railroad track near King's Mountain her fears were aroused, believing that it
might be that of her son, for she had heard nothing from him since he went away
from home without telling her good bye.
As the days went by and no messages came from her son, she became more
aprehensive and yesterday she sought the aid of the Journal in a effort to
obtain information concerning the whereabouts of her son.
The publication in
Wednesday's Journal that Mrs. Sellers believed that the body of the unknown dead
man who was killed by a Southern Train was that of her son, caused Policeman
Deason, a brother in law of Sellers, to go to King's Mountain and make an
investigation. The identity of the
body was established. When
Mr. Deason was satisfied that the body was that of John Sellers, arrangements
were made to bring the remains to Spartanburg for interment.
John Sellars, was a painter
and blacksmith. For several months
he had been painting for H. M. Gaines, but on Saturday, arranged to go to work
in a blacksmith shop on Broad Street on Monday morning. *

Baptist Cemetery in Banks County. Who is Mahala (sp?) Brown buried next to them
with the same type headstone? I'll have to get with you on the details of our

In Reply to: Sellers
Brothers / Habersham Co. by Cecelia Sellers Koon of 1345
Hi
Cecelia,
The information that I have
states that Jeremiah (Jerry) Sellers married Adella J. Grant on May 29, 1892 in
Habersham Co., GA. I list children as: George Weldon, Paul Grant, Albert, Sarah
Lela, and Alley Sellers, but I don't have 1900/1910 census for this family group
to verify the children's names.
Your Jeremiah / Jerry was on
the 1870 census in Habersham Co., GA with his Grandmother, Mary (Mears) Prince,
widowed mother, Sarah Sellers (viz Prince), and sister,
Malinda:
1870 Habersham Co, GA P#
186B Household / Dwelling # 1087 / 1017:
Prince, Mary, 80, female, b.
VA
Sellers, Sarah, 37, b
GA
" Malinda, 11, b
GA
" Jeremiah, 9, b
GA
Jeremiah was the son of
Ephraim and Sarah E. (Prince) Sellers. Ephraim was b. @ 1833, the son of John
and Sarah (Christopher )Sellers. This family was from the Haywood County, NC
area. Sarah E. Prince was born on March 8, 1831, the daughter of James and Mary
(Mears) Prince.
The 1860 census for
Habersham shows Ephraim, Sarah and Malinda, but Jeremiah had not yet been
born:
1860 Habersham Co., GA
Household / Dwelling # 942 / 942:
Cillars, Ephraim, 27, male,
farmer, b NC
" Sarah E., 27, female, b
GA
" Malinda, 1, female, b
GA
(One of the creative ways
for census enumerators to spell Sellers!)
This is not my direct line,
but you and I are double cousins. My GGG Grandfather was your Ephraim's brother,
Conrad Sellers who married Sarah E. Princes' sister, Artemesia "Arte" Prince!
There was, also, a third Sellers / Prince marriage for Ephraim and Conrad's
brother, John Sellers married Sarah and Artemesia's sister, Jane
Prince.

Notes for James Baxter
Inman:
James Baxter Inman and his
wife Mary Etta Sellers had nine children.
He was a carpenter/blacksmith/farmer by trade. Some of the buildings he helped
construct were the Lumbuth Inn, the Clyde High School, and houses in
Canton.
He was the son of Ballou
Inman and Dawn Arrow, a full-blooded Cherokee. Ballou, Dawn Arrow, and son Arrow are
buried in the Inman Chapel Cemetery.
Dawn Arrow's headstone has disappeared, but we know it had been next to
James Anderson and Mary Inman's.

Scoggins:
NOTE FROM AUSBURN
RESEARCHER:
"I heard from my sister,
Louise, (in Mississippi - about Lorena Sellers. Here is what she sent
me:
As a child, when I visited
(with Grandma Annie Bee Watson they lived near Grady School and we went to
Church at Damascus Baptist Church on Sunday. Granny always wore a long black dress
and a black hat to Church and to me, she always looked nice. She was slim and tall, even a little
taller than Grandpa. Mrs. Lorene
Sellars was my Sunday School Teacher there, and her husband's name was Ike. I remember the first time I went there
to Church. When Granny told her who
I was, "Miss Lorene" grabbed me and hugged me real hard. She said: "You're just like your Mama Hattie
Louisa". "Miss Lorene" was a big
woman, with a ruddy complexion and light red hair. She and Mr. Ike lived near the Church
and her Daddy lived with them, though I don't remember his name. Their little boy, Boyd, had drowned in a
wash pot in their yard when he was small.
I think he would have been a little older than me, had he
lived.
This is what I have from the
graves at Damascus:

Notes for Jeremiah "Jerry"
M. Sellers:
E-Mail from Teresa Hagwood,
September 23, 2001:
I never met my grandparents
on either side of my parent's family?
My maternal grandfather, Jerimiah M. Sellers, died in Georgia. After Pearlie V. Hayes Sellers (his wife
who was apparently 17 years his junior) died, he took their sons and moved to
Georgia. He left the daughters
(including my mother who was the oldest girl) in Mississippi. Mother was 12 years old. I think Jerimiah was short but had
talent with mechanics.

OBITUARY OF STYLES
SELLERS
Leonard Styles Sellers, 77,
of 4 Judson St., Judson, died Tuesday at 9:05 A.M. in a Greenville hospital
after being in declining health for some time.
A son of the late EPHRAM and
MARTHA JANE NORTON SELLERS, he was born August 12, 1881 at COMMERCE, GA. In 1923 (WRONG, HE MOVED FROM COMMERCE,
GEORGIA IN THE YEAR 1922) he moved to the Brushy Creek section of Anderson
County and lived there until three years ago when he came to Greenville. Mr. Sellers was a retired farmer and
cattleman.
He was a member of Siloam
Baptist Church of Anderson County.
His wife, the late Mrs.
Annie Ausburn Sellers, died October 22, 1952.
Surviving are 2 daughters,
Mrs. Edith Rumage of Tulsa, Okla., and Mrs. Jeanette Gambrell of Piedmont; 4
sons, J. Doyle Sellers and Jewel L. Sellers of Greenville, Howard T. Sellers of
Anderson and Pfc. Edward R. Sellers of Panama; 2 sisters, Mrs. Fannie Jewell of
Nicholson, Ga., and Mrs. Onnie Arnold of Winterville, Ga.; 4 brothers, Bratcher
Sellers of Greensboro, Ga., J. B. Sellers of Greenville, B. C. Sellers of Brushy
Creek section of Anderson County and A. L. Sellers of Jacksonville, Fla.; 12
grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.
Funeral services will be
conducted Thursday at Siloam Baptist Church at an hour to be announced. Burial will be in the church
cemetery.
Thomas McAfee Funeral Home
is in charge. The body is at the
funeral home. The family is at the
home of his son, J. Doyle Sellers, 4 Judson St., Judson.
--------
This is what we heard about
Granny and Papa moving to Anderson County, South Carolina from Banks County,
Georgia. Lewis James, son of Martin James of Powdersville, Anderson County, S.
C., tells this tale. "One day Mr.
Martin James found a lad wearing coveralls and was barefoot walking along the
road. He picked the man up and took
him to his house and told his wife to fix this lad something to eat. Then he put this man to work on his
farm." This man was my grandfather,
Leonard Styles Sellers. Papa, as we
called him, then sent for his family and they rode the train to South
Carolina. They lived in Banks
County, Georgia, and most of their children were born in Georgia, except Aunt
Jeanette, who was born in Anderson County, SC. My father told that one of the Ausburn
men helped Granny and Papa move.
They put all their belongings in a wagon pulled by horses, and started
their journey from Georgia. It is
unclear to me if any of the other Ausburn families were already in South
Carolina or if Granny and Papa were the first of our family to move from Banks
County, Georgia to Anderson County, South Carolina. It
probably took them a few
days with a horse and wagon. By
this time they were in Powdersville, South Carolina, in the Brushy Creek Section
of Anderson County on the farm of Martin James. They lived in the Brushy Creek
Section of Anderson County in Powdersville until their deaths. Papa also had a syrup mill, a lumber
yard, horses and mules, pigs and hogs, chickens and roosters, and a cow for
milk, and a fishing pole to catch all that good fish, and would do anything to
make a living for his family.

------
My grand-mother was a hard
working woman. Her hair was down to
her waist and I used to watch her brush it out every night and every morning she
would put it up into a ball on her head.
The house they lived in was only a 3 or 4 room house and I would sleep on
the couch. She got up early every
morning to cook breakfast. I had
never heard of fish, chicken or pork chops for breakfast, but what ever Poppa
had killed, she would cook for them.
They had pigs, chickens, cows and horses to plow the field. They did not own their land, but lived
on Martin James' land in Powdersville, S. C. Poppa would work for Mr. James to pay
for their rent. She would go to the
hen house and get their eggs for breakfast, milk the cow, and feed the chickens. That was the best milk in the whole wide
world, unless the cow got into bitter weeds in the pasture. She also churned to make her buttermilk
and butter. After she
finished the breakfast, we would eat and she would clean up the kitchen and the house. She did not have running water. They had a well and she had to draw
water every day to cook with and for them to take a bath in the old tin
tub. They did not have any grass in
their yard. It was all dirt. She would go and hunt up long sticks and
bind them together with a string to make her a brush broom to sweep the
yard. She had to make a new brush
broom every day as the sticks would break and she would have to discard it. They had an "Outhouse" for their bath
room. When Granny died I was about
12 years old. We went to their
house the day they buried Granny and my Ausburn and my Sellers cousins from
Georgia and South Carolina were there.
I loved all my cousins that I knew.

Notes for George Weldon
Sellers:
"Life Along The Middle Broad
River", by Patti Evans-Shumate and Rebecca Bruce:
GEORGE SELLARS
HOME
The George Sellars house was
northwest of the Toccoa Pumping Station and West along the Guard Camp Road. A branch of the Middle Fork of the Broad
River is southwest of the place, and there are ornamental plantings of crepe
myrtle trees and an unusual Balm of Gilead tree, which was frequently used for
medicinal purposes.
Today the site is covered in
briars, daffodils, and buttercups and sits on a terrace above the branch. Beulah Brown Sellars lived in this house
with her husband, George. In an
interview in 1987, Mrs. Sellars spoke of her home place which was known as "The
Old Tabor Place". She moved in
after her marriage in 1918. She
remembered three rooms and a kitchen, two rock fireplaces, and a large
porch. She could also remember the
well which was located under a wood shelter in the back yard. She spoke of a big barn and a smoke
house, and talked of raising corn, cotton, and vegetables. She could also remember their renters
(The Rays) living in a house northwest of this one. Mrs. Sellars went to Ayersville School
and Mt. Pleasant Church while living in the area. At the time of government acquisition,
this property was a part of Camp Toccoa.
One of the most beautiful
waterfalls in the WMA is near this homesite - "TABOR FALLS". END QUOTE

-----
Why does obituary above (of
Henry Grady Phillips) list daughter Marie's married name as Marshall instead of
Morrison?? I think this is probably just a mistake and not indicative of a
second marriage.
-----
My mother remembers that
while her father insisted that his year of birth was 1900, her mother said he
was mistaken and it was actually 1898. Birth certificates were not issued by the
state of South Carolina until about 1910. He was listed as being a couple of
years old on the 1900 census, though the year of birth appears to have been
scribbled over. What year was he born??....<b.c.>
-------
My mother's memories of her
father, Henry Grady Phillips:
She fondly remembers taking
walks with him, and he would point out the naturally growing plants and flowers
in the area. He loved to read. He was not a hunter, and although it must have
been hard to feed a family during the great depression, she remembers that he
would take care of abandoned animals until he could find a home for
them<b.c.>

Mr Phillips died at the
scene around 5:35 p.m. from massive multiple trauma, said Greenville County

Notes for Leonard Bert
Ausburn:
Dad told me a tale about
Uncle Leonard Bert Ausburn. He said
that when he was a young boy, his Uncle Bert Ausburn, whose wife was Venia,
bought a T-Model Ford. He was with
some of the Ausburn kids playing in the woods at his grandfather's (Joseph B.
Ausburn) place, and they hid up next to the old road (which is now closed and
was named Joe Ausburn Road), when they heard their car coming down the
road. Daddy said that Uncle Bert
was not going but about 10 miles an hour on the old rickety dirt road, and he
was coming up on a curve and Daddy heard him say to Aunt Venia "Watch me make
that damn curve, Venia". My
Daddy still tells this tale to this day and laughs about it. He thought that was the funniest thing
Uncle Bert ever said. I have a
picture of Uncle Bert and Aunt Venia when they were young with a baby that died
in infancy.
