MONROE TWN, JUNIATA CO, PA

An old blacksmith’s account-book, containing many of the old names of this section, and beginning in 1786, is in possession of Mrs. William Sellers, near the old Sellers mill, now Bashore’s. This account-book was doubtless Michael Lauver’s.

The land next east of the Michael Lauver tract was taken up by Thomas Hewes, August 1, 1766, on application No. 164, who sold it to Samuel Wallis, a merchant of Philadelphia. It was patented by him as “Hewes’ Adventure,” and contained three hundred and twenty-six acres of land. He sold it, September 4, 1782, to Henry Drinker, also a merchant of Philadelphia. It was adjoining a tract, that then belonged to Jeremiah Lynn and Gideon Percival. A part of this tract was sold to Joseph and Jacob Sellers on February 4, 1794; and part Stephen Rees. Drinker owned other land near the tract. Joseph Sellers sold his interest in the land, January 15, 1796, to Jacob Sellers, Jr., and removed to what is now Delaware Township (Humphrey’s Mill), where he bought the mill property of John Hamilton, and lived and died there.

Jacob Sellers, Sr., in a German Bible in possession of the family, wrote on the title-page, “Come to this plantation in 1793.” The next year after the purchase was made, other land was purchased by him and his sons. Jacob built a grist-mill on a branch of the Cocolamus Creek, about 1790, on the site of the old lime-kiln, about two hundred rods from the present mill. On the 25th of July, 1826, Jacob Sellers, Jr., sold a part of the land to Peter Shellenberger, who later sold to William Sellers one hundred and seventy-nine acres, on which, in 1846, he built the present mill, now owned by John Bashore. Joseph and Jacob Sellers bought of Henry Drinker a tract of land in 1794, which was sold to Christley Lauver, a son-in-law. He resided at the mill and continued it some years. This was the land bought by Peter Shellenberger.

Jacob Sellers, Sr., died in 1831. His children were Joseph, Mary (who married John Brought), George, Barbara, Jacob, Elizabeth (Mrs. George Rothrock), Alvah, William, Achsah (Mrs. --- Wurtz, who settled in Mifflin County). Mrs. William Sellers is now living near the mill far advanced in years. She was a daughter of Jacob Pyle, who was also a settler in this region.

Frank Sellers

Thanks for all the wonderful help so far in helping to figure out a
possible location for that Eyman deed on Mahanatango creek. It seems
like it must have been someplace along the border between Snyder and
Juniata.

In order to get closer, I'm wondering several things. Are there maps
of property owners of say 1770? In one web-description, I've seen a
note that a Henry Sellers had up to 900 acres in Greenwood, and his
name is on the 1771 Eyman deed in Penn Township of Cumberland. Are
there SELLERS folks around who have located their land? At the same
website I was surprised to read that there weren't too many Germans
west of the Susquehanna.. so Eiman or Eyman must have been striking
out on his own, though one genealogy I've read suggests that Sellers
might have been Zellers and German.

Any comments would be much appreciated.

Also.. a matter of netiquette. I'm hesitant to post messages to both
the Juniata and the Snyder listserv lists suspecting that there might
be a great deal of overlap in membership. I'd be thankful for
suggestions about list norms in this regard.

Care and appreciation -- Steve -- sciman@csupomona.edu
