thank you for this information!! It is exactly what I was looking for.
This
is the family I am a descendant of.  I just started researching this and
am
really excited that I found this info.  Are you related to this family at
all?  Lucille Esther(daughter of George Monroe)  is my great grandmother.
I
am actually going to a family reunion in 2 weeks and will be sharing this
info!

thanks again!

Hi!  I shared this information with a relative and they found a possible
discrepancy
in a piece of info you had.  George Monroe Sellers married Mary Emma Bell
on
2-4-1891, not  2-4-1890  as you had referenced.  Also, Mary Emma Bell was
born in Warrington, FL, not Virginia.  This information was confirmed by
one
of their grandsons who has been tracking this as well.  Not big a big
discrepancy, but thought you may want to be aware of that.

From the information I have obtained from my family and through the
internet
my connection to the Sellers family is as follows:

Benjamin Sellers m. Sarah Hickman
Their son, Elisha Hugh Sellers m. Mary Willets
of this marriage came Matthew Sellers, who m. Sara Jane Ward
Their son, William Sellers m. Eleandor Edwards.
of this marriage came Calvin Sellers, who m. Elizabeth Talbot.
Their son, George Monroe Sellers m. Mary Emma Bell (who remarried a
Potts).
of this marriage came my great grandmother Lucille Esthers Sellers.
Lucille married Gordon Keller and had 4 sons, one of which is Gordon H.
Keller, Jr.
His daughter, Susan Marie Keller is my mother.  My name is Scott Taylor.
I
currently live in Raleigh NC.

The keller family had information traced back to Calvin Sellers.  Beyond
that I obtained from sources online such as this subscription and
information on websites.  I do have dates, locations, etc up to Calvin
Sellers if any confirmation is needed.  I have only been researching for
about 2 weeks now, so any additional info available is great.  The
Kellers(4
sons of Lucille) are having a family reunion in August.  I would like to
be
able to share as much new info as possible.
Thanks!
