HEATHER, thank you for sending your chart connecting to
Mary SELLERS, dau
of Mathew
SELLERS and ANN CORBERT and married HUGHES. They must be about the
only
child that stayed
in KY?
We have linked a couple kids to MS and LA. Have you followed up
on any of
her
brothers/sisters?
I don't believe I have the Taylor marriage to her sister Rhoda SELLERS,
?
Send any info you have collected on her brothers/sisters and will
try and
follow thro on
'links' for them.

Thanks for sharing SELLERS. marie, iowa
I don't recall if I have spoken with your relatives or not.
Possibly,
since I have been online for 7 years or so now. I don't know
about the Arkansas
connection either. I do have a copy of family info from Crooked
Creek
Church in Crittenden Co., Ky. That is where I found these children's
names.
Joseph and Mary Hughes also had a son James Licurgus. Do you
know the
significant if any of Licurgus name?
If you would like the Heath info that I have, just let me know.
I'll be
happy to share what I have.
