I would love to send the information that I have on Gurley and his
descendants, but don't know how. Do I just post the info on
the list, or
do I send a GEDCOM file to someone?
My connection with Gurley comes through his son, Isaac Gurley Sellers,
who
married Mary Savannah Holcomb. They had several children (he
also had a
previous wife) who were born in Texas and Alabama. One of
his children,
Arvin Eugene Sellers, is my wife's great grandfather. His
children are in
Alabama today, as are most of his grandchildren.

J.
As far as I know, all of the children of Isaac Gurley except for
Arvin E.,
Lilly Belle, and Douglas J. were born in Jefferson
Co, AL.
Can post more when I have more time. There is a mention of
Gurley Sellers
on
the Sellers family page (1810 North Carolina, I believe) which indicates
that
he is the child of one Arntil Sellers of Ireland, but would like
to see
proof
of this, if possible.
