My grandmother, Eulia Grace SELLERS, was married to S. G.
CLEMENTS, decendant of
Capt. Benjamin Clements.
Marie: I suppose, like so many families, the mothers take a
beating in
genealogy. This is the reason I joined you mail list, I don't
have
anything on my grandmothers side of the family except her.
I know that
she was either born in Blount Co., AL,
or an adjoining county. Here is
all I know,
Eulia Grace Sellers .b 1874, NE Alabama (maybe Blount
County)
.d 1961, Birmingham, Jefferson Co., AL (Oak
Hill Cemetery)
Married: S. G. "Shug" Clements, b. 1870, Oneonta, Blount Co.,
AL
d. 1942, Birmingham,
AL (Oak Hill Cemetery)
Children of this marriage included my dad, Arthur Eugene Clements,
Sr.
I have plenty on the Clements' if you want it. Sorry I could
not furnish
more.

In going through my filing cabinet (the floor),
I came
upon some coorespondace from a second cousin of
mine, now deceased, Ethel Scherral of Oneonta. She had
reserached 1880 Census, St. Clair County, Alabama
and had my grandmother's family in it. She listed it as
follows:
St Clair County, Alabama, Beat 3, Springville.
Name

Eulalia

Seaburn, Jr (?)

As you can see, her name was listed in the census as Eulalia
and we have always used Eulia. No doubt that it's
the same because Ethel knew all these people around Blount
and St. Clair County.
I just taked to my sister and she told me that Albert SELLERS
was also Eulia's brother. He must have been born
after 1880. I barely remember him from back when I attended
the SELLERS reunion in Birmingham, Alabama.
May be after some more crawling around on the floor, I can
come up with some more about the SELLERS family.
Hope you can tie this in somewhere.

Could also check 1870 ST CLAIR CO, AL =

This information is sketchy at the least. If anyone can
either verify and/or add to it, I'd sure appreciate it.

My database shows that Seaborn had three wives: Jane CURRY,
Eppie WHITE,
and Lucretia HORTON. I have no children in my database with
any of these
wives.
If you think this might be your Seborn SELLERS, I have a lot of information
on his ancestors. bp
