I received William Lawrence SELLERS death certificate from Alabama.

It says: born Mar 17, 1870, died April 23, 1941 Jefferson Co, AL

His father was William SELLERS and mother, Martha NEILL.

The mother was born in Georgia, the father in Alabama

According to census, he and siblings were born in Florida.

Marie... When I put the Hallmark genealogy on the computer...she showed up...the parents of Ernest were Tennessee people and they had 7 children...the parents died in Oklahoma...I don't know if she was OK or TN....just a Sellers that I had in a lineage...I would say early 1900's is a good time for Ernest and Mary's marriage and probably TN. But all this is a guess.

I am working on the 1850 complete census (Sellers) of TN... I can put the county codes in...as soon as I find the paper again... drowning in paper...Sandy

Wow, am I glad you wrote.  I just got back a week ago from there.  I tried
to meet with Margaret, but she wasn't home.  I left her a note.  Maybe on
vacation?  The landscapers were there (big property) but no family.  

I visited the Red Top Primitive Baptist Cemetery, Happy Valley Rd, Tallasee.
Saw what must be your relatives buried there.  Lots of Sellers.  As a matter
of fact I took pictures of several of the gravestones for another cousin,
Steve Rosen, who's g-g-grandmother's children married into the Sellers
family.  Also there is currently a man, Ben Whitehead, who lives on Bell
Branch Rd, which is off Happy Valley Rd, who married a Sellers.  He was born
1917.  Lives in the "backwoods."

These are the Sellers that a took pictures of.  Again, they are from Red
Top.  There MAY be more, I don't know.  There are three cemeteries in that
are:  Red Top, Boone, and some Missionary Church's cemetery:
