"Robert
M. Buntin" <Mac43@compuserve.com>
Hi. My name is Mac Buntin. My wife is a descendant of
Elisha Sellers
through Ann Peoples Sellers. I saw on Erin's
Page (I believe) that the
lineage started with William Sellers (b. bef 1657), then John, Matthew,
Benjamin, then Elisha. Do you have the sources for William
and John. I
see a partial source for Matthew in a deed where Benjamin mentions
his
father. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Mac

My wife, Gloria Grissett Buntin, is connected to the Mintz and Sellers
through her great grandfather, George Washington Grissett b. 1819.
He
married Hannah Jane Mintz, daughter of Henry Mintz b. 1774
and Ann
Peoples Sellers, b. 1782. The dates of Henry Mintz and Ann
Sellers come
from "Descendants of William and Sarah Grissett of Brunswick
Co., North
Carolina" booklet by Bessie Mae Stover
Frink, from material collected by
Versie (Grissett) Parker. Some info on the Mintz family comes
from "Mintz
Families of the Old South", by Moore. Several of my wife's family
still
live in the Brunswick Co., NC area and
we have been to several of the
Grissett, Mintz cemeteries, some of which are on private land.
I have seen many postings
on the Rootsweb and Genforum and other
web sites, but rarely do I see a source. That is my reason
for asking
about the sources for the Sellers family beginning with William
b. bef
1657.
I have no sourced information
on parents of Ann Peoples Sellers.
Only that information which is on the Web, which I'm sure you have.
The
Sellers family apparently has been very confusing and I am trying
to piece
it together. Many of the people I have e-mailed that have
postings, no
longer use that e-mail address and cannot be reached. Thanks
for
responding.
From the info that I
have seen, it seems that Ann Peoples parents
were Elisha Sellers and Sarah (Jane Peoples?), not Mary Willets.
But I
have no direct source. Just looking at children's names
and dates of
birth. I e-mailed Carlah about the Sarah Jane Peoples
source, but the
e-mail came back. Does anyone know? Thanks, Mac
MAC, Thank You,
Please send us Hannah Jane MINTZ 1822 married Geo Wash GRISSETT

Explainer, some of our SELLERS are Very Adapt at This. I try when No one
