Subject: Re: RE: [SELLERS]
I have a few questions after reviewing the Nathan Sellers Will transcript.
This is my analysis of the Will of Nathan Sellers dated 18 July 1824.
Nathan Sellers
wife Sarah [--?--]
son Nathan Sellers
daughters ...
Mary (Sellers) Fleming
Jane Fleming
Jane (Sellers) Duggins
Sarah Duggins
Elizabeth (Sellers) Snodgrass died before 18 July 1824
Nathan Snodgrass
Sarah Snodgrass
Arbella Snodgrass
Jane (Snodgrass) Walsh
James Snodgrass
Elizabeth Snodgrass
Thomas Snodgrass
Margaret Snodgrass
Sarah (Sellers) Snodgrass
Margaret (Sellers) Bell --- is this a mis-reading of the handwriting???
Should it be Neil ???? if so then her children are:
Nathan Neil
Benjamine Neil
John Neil
Mary Ann Neil
If these children are not Margaret's, then whose????
Nancy (Sellers) Hawkins
Ellsa (Sellers) Cox ... might this be Elisa???
Rebecca (Sellers) McCracken
Who do the McCoy children belong to?????
Nathan McCoy
Sarah McCoy
Nelly McCoy
John McCoy
My guess is Rebecca (Sellers) McCracken
... again a possible mis-reading of the handwriting.
I believe I have accounted for all the names in the Will.
