Many of the men from Brunswick/Columbus Co, NC were killed in the
Civil War. Some
are buried in Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Va. Upon a recent
visit to
the cemetery to order a headstone for SIMEON BENTON who is laid
to rest
there, I purchased a copy of the book that lists about 7,000 of
the 18,000
confederate dead buried there. The rest are unknown. If you believe
that
you may have an ancestor who died in the Civil War buried there,
I would
be happy to look him up for you. Just e-mail me with his name, Co
and Reg,
and date of death if you know it.

SELLERS, TEDDER posted by Richard J. Kee I'm looking for information on a Thomas TEDDER, his daughter Fannie TEDDER, and his grandson, George TEDDER. Thomas appears on the 1880 census as being over 80 years old at the time, yet a Thomas TEDDER is listed in the archive pages of this website as being in a Columbus County Civil War regiment. If they are the same, he would have been over 60 at the time of the Civil War. Are they one and the same? I can find no other Thomas listed in the census record for 1860. Also, George married a Sarah J. SELLERS about 1895 in Columbus County. Any help with information on any of these individuals will be greatly appreciated.

BENTON, LONG, SELLERS posted by Miranda Mosley on Wednesday, May 21, 1997 My great-great-grandparents, Benjamin A. BENTON (1831-1915) and Nancy Jane LONG (1839-1919) lived in Columbus County during the last century. Benjamin A. BENTON was the son of Arthur BENTON and Elizabeth Rebecca SELLERS. I believe Nancy Jane was the daughter of Joseph LONG and his wife, Nancy. I am also searching for information about the SELLERS family. I am at a dead end on the SELLERS and LONG families. If you can help, please email me.

The following query was posted on at the Sellers website; however,
the
email address is no longer valid. If Miranda Mosley sees this
email or if
anyone knows her, please contact Betty Parrish <bsp@hohogoo.com>.
Query: BENTON, LONG, SELLERS posted by Miranda Mosley on Wednesday,
May
21, 1997. My great-great-grandparents, Benjamin A. BENTON
(1831-1915) and
Nancy Jane LONG (1839-1919) lived in Columbus County during the
last
century. Benjamin A. BENTON was the son of Arthur BENTON and Elizabeth
Rebecca SELLERS. I believe Nancy Jane was the daughter of Joseph
LONG and
his wife, Nancy. I am also searching for information about the SELLERS
family. I am at a dead end on the SELLERS and LONG families. If
you can
help, please email me.
Response to Query from Betty Parrish:
I am also descended from Benjamin and Nancy Jane. I have a
lot of
information, in fact I just discovered Elizabeth Rebecca Sellers'
parentage
yesterday. I am updated my Benton Family in Family Tree Maker.
I would be
glad to send you a GEDCOM file when it's updated (maybe next week).
Please
let me know if you are interested. Also, where do you live
and who were
your g.grandparents and grandparents? My g.grandparents were
Vander Vollie
(Van) Benton and Francis Lenore (Nora) Newton; my grandparents were
Lula
Esther Benton and Daniel Nichols Jordan.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thankyou very much for your response. I believe you have all
the
Spivey/Sellers
land deeds, but possibly the following you do not have.
Ephraim Cartrett to Abraham Cribb, 26 Feb l85l,$36, 50A. in Columbus
County adj
lands of Jesse Cartrett, Hugh Mac Furshion, David Nealy, and Charles
T.
Dusenberry,
land belonging of Ephraim Cartrett and Curtis Spivey (as their part
of
the Estate as
heirs of Claudius Cartrett after laying out to the widow Sarah 50
acres)the place where
Sarah Cartrett now lives.
Signed E. Cartrett and Curtis Spivey
Witnesses: Elisha Sellers and Charles T. Dusenberry (L-122).
