MIRIAM'S PAGE

Hello,
I just came across a web page concerning Sellers genealogy. it
is a
rather
confusing format and dates of entries are not evident.
My husband is a descendant of Laird Sellers'
dau. Angeline Blackburn.
I saw the name Young Sellers with your information. I found a
Young
Sellers in Jackson Co. AL and have wondered if and/or how he connected
with
the TN Sellers.
I will gladly share any info. I have with anyone interested.
Miriam Blackburn
MIRIAM - will send thro our SELLERS group and see if anyone connected to
this
YOUNG SELLERS born ca 1789 NC
with wife SARAH ca1803 TN
and kids born AL from 1828
and living in JACKSON CO, AL from 1830
And if any connection to Chatham Co,NC
We had some SELLERS from NC come south -
We would appreciate receiving a small chart of info on your Angeline
SELLERSBlackburn.=
Who /when/where married and kids born when/where and went to?
Also would appreciate the page name or county/state it refers to
=that
doesn't
have much format? and will see if there is anything I can do to correct.
Sometimes, info just gets posted and we don't get back to 'making it look
better' Sorry.
Thanks for sharing, marie, iowa

Sorry for the delay in replying- one of the "bugs"
caught me last week.
All seems well now.
I think I figured out how to get to the Sellers info.. Is it
your page?
What I was getting was info. contrubuted by Malinda James from Moniteau Co.
MO. but couldn't get anywhere else except to a TX county.
I have
corresponded with Malinda in the past and we shared info.

Grandaughters of Laird Sellers married brothers of James G.
Blackburn.
I
believe these were daughters of Fannie Sellers Wallace, decd. I
believe
Fannie was dau. of Ann Hackney, Laird's first wife.
The Blackburn brothers were sons of John and Christina
Branner
Blackburn,
born in Jefferson Co. TN and moved to MO c 1840.

Sellers Blackburn through their son James Green Blackburn and Nancy Burns,
his ggrand parents who lived and died in Miller Co. MO where my husband
also was born.
I have additional information on Laird Sellers in TN and some of his
children with some big gaps which I will gladly share.
