REV WAR FILE OF JAMES SELLERS
contributed by Linda Peacock [lindapeacock@vip.cybercity.dk]

>From 'SELLERS LETTERS' (C) M. Sims

James SELLERS, SR--Pension certificate #19180 dated Aug 13, 1833,
Grainger Co., East Tennessee.  Pension claim #S3872.  In his
affidavit dated Feb 19, 1833, James SELLERS, Sr, age 74, stated
he enlisted Nov 2, 1779 from Chatham County, NC, where he lived.
He served until Aug 2, 1780 and was in the Battle of Guilford
Court House.  After the war he lived in Burke Co, NC, then
Grainer Co, TN, then moved to Rutledge, Bradley Co, TN.  In 1833,
he had no widow, but a son, James, Jr, still living.  There were
two other heirs mentioned but not their names or relationship.

I don't know if these can ALL be proven or Not?
WE NEED more documents for proof?

Will send thru our SELLERS group for help. As most of them are the ones who have shared the documents on these families.

I will point out what we/I DON'T have Or see documents on=

JAMES SELLERS 1759 did NOT have a son BORN 1802.
per the 1810 NC BURKE CO, NC census

It is Possible JOHN SELLERS 1802 misstated his age
If born 1802 and married 1822 , would he have a bondsman on his marriage?
Land records may show a connection to help prove?

ROBERT SELLERS could be born 1800 (wife Mary was born 1801 in 1850 census)

IN 1815 GRAINGER CO, TN we only have JAMES SELLERS Land and we have
NO 1820 census, so we must use land records and county minutes for documents.

Marriages and all possible kids of JAMES SELLERS 1759=
 SELLERS, James         B620 BROCK, Elizabeth           22/04/1817
SELLERS, Robert        I342 IDOLS, Mary                    30/01/1823

 (SELLERS, Rebecca      J250 JACKSON, Jacob               10-MAR-1831=
(per 1850 census, Rebecca was born ca 1798 NC)
JAMES SELLERS 1759 does not have a daughter living at home this age IN 1830
IF Sarah SELLERS is his dau or BETSY SELLERS 1800 is dau and living at home)

YES, we have maybe 3-4 females that may have married and stayed in NC? or married and came with?
Some of the Land records in Burke Co, NC, may help show these other marriages?

WE are in GRAINGER CO, TN in 1815.

ROBERT SELLERS dies before 1840 = widow Mary SELLERS born ca 1801

1840 JAMES SELLERS 1759 is living in Bradley Co, Tn with female 1790/1800 and Close to David SELLERS 1810/20

JAMES SELLERS 1759 dies ca 1843 = 3 heirs =
JAMES SELLERS and two others, unnamed
(so John Sellers 1802 and Sarah Sellers and Elizabeth Sellers canNot? all be kids?,msh)

BUYERS at SALE = JAMES SELLERS and SARAH SELLERS.=
James Sellers,  son 1791
SARAH SELLERS? UNMARRIED daughter? (NOT married in 1843)
or possible dil, but , others aren't named
and if a dau SARAH married a GOFORTH? when/where? she wouldn't be a SELLERS, unless married after 1843.

NONE of the other widows (MARY, )  are included in HEIRS? are they?

AND, yes we have an ELIZABETH SELLERS 1800 here in 1850 GRAINGER , TN.
WHERE has she been?
IS she a dau or dau in law?

WE only have 3 HEIRS in 1843?

ANY HELP explaining these questions, would be Appreciated.
Thanks, marie, iowa

Notes for Elizabeth Sellers:
Was still in the 1850 Grainger County, Tennessee census.  ld

+ 9 viii. John Sellers, born 12 August 1802 in North Carolina; died 19 September 1860 in Grainger County, Tennessee.
 10 ix. Robert Sellers, born 18054; died Abt. 18404.  He married Mary Idol4 30 January 1823 in Grainger County County, Tennessee4.

James Sellers who died in Grainger County, TN, is of German descent. Robert Sellers Sr. of Burke County, NC and James T/Y Sellers of Chatham County, NC (known brothers) are Scotch-Irish-English. I know the James Sellers that died in Grainger County, TN, was in Chatham County, NC, but I have never found a connection.

CHARMAINE, thanks.

This is what I have on Rev James Sellers 1759/1842.
So, we keep digging and sharing and taking dna tests.
Thanks, marie, iowa

==========================

James Sellers was born 1759 NC, but, he doesn't say Chatham which was NOT
> made till 1770 from Orange where we do have Sellers in 1755/59/65 etc.

> And same land Chatham was made from, so a small point to make. So, IF
> this is his family, he could have been born in Orange Co., NC
>
> 1779 he enlisted Chatham Co., NC (same land as part of Orange Co)
under Capt Mathew Ramsey. Col Thaxton.
He left the servie in Aug 1780.
His discharge was destroyed when his fathers home was burned
>
> ABOUT 1810 (and maybe before) in BURKE CO, NC before he went to
> Grainger Co., Tn Where in 1795 Burke Co., NC, we have a JAMES SELLERS
with son JAMES
> in a deed record ( assuming over 19/21) son born before 1775.
(THIS WOULD NOT equal the JAMES SELLERS 1759 with possible son James born 1791, msh) so we have another JAMES SELLERS here that I don't have? msh) OR could this be the father of James SELLERS 1759? msh)
