My Grandfather is Bilbo E. Sellers from Collins,
MS. He has lots of
siblings, but I don't know any of them. He is now paralyzed
and I cannot
obtain that information from him. It is such a shame that
I let that
opportunity pass before I realized the importance of it. I
know that his
grandmother or maybe even his mother was a Sullivan from Sullivans
Hollow, Covington County. My grandmother
was a Gentry from the same
area. Any help you can give will be GREATLY appreciated.

GINNY, You may be able to read the census and trace his family -
start
ca 1920 see who is there. Here are the marriages from ca 1909 thro
1920
- We may have some earlier also,
Perhaps, someone else will recognize some names and contact you and you can send us a chart! marie, iowa

Now, if we read this census or someone send it to us - then we will
know
where IRVIN/ERVIN
SELLERS was born
OR do a search on where LAUGHTON DAVIS is in 1850/60=
OR search for IRVIN/ERVIN SELLERS marriage =
WE did have a WILLIAM SELLERS here in 1820 - so you may want to check
ALL
surrounding
counties-
And a JOHN SELLERS here in 1830 =
AND we have a SPICEY SELLERS close here
DO we have a marriage of WILLIAM or JOHN SELLERS and SPICEY
?- sounds
familiar
WILLIAM or JOHN SELLERS in 1835 war?
ERVIN/IRVIN SELLERS is good CIVIL WAR to check =
OR read the actual 1880 Covington Co, MS census - HIRAM SELLERS will
tell
you where his
parents born=
These SELLERS were in COVINGTON CO, MS a long time - look for original
land records by=
history of original townships=
biographies=
obituaries=
COVINGTON CO, MS =(made in 1819 from Lawrence, Wayne Co's)
lays next to Jones Co,MS
ANYONE recognize these names - send what you have - sometimes, only
takes
ONE link to
connect - THANKS - marie, iowa
