  • Notes 
    • From:
      "cookerly"
      the 1900 census for Vigo County,
      Indiana, Otter Creek Township had the following information:
      Name DOB Age Birthplace

      Sellers, Sherman 7-1866 33 Kentucky (where 1880?)
      Sellers, Martha 3-1869 31 Kentucky
      Sellers, Leonard 1-1895 5 Kentucky
      Sellers, Mayme 8-1897 2 Kentucky
      Sellers, Harry 12-1898 1 Kentucky


      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      The 1920 Census for Sullivan County, Indiana listed:

      Name Age Birthplace

      Sellers, Sherman 52 Kentucky
      Martha W 50 Kentucky
      Lenard V. S 25 Kentucky
      Harry S 20 Kentucky (ca1900)
      Minnie D 18 Indiana
      Chester S 14 Indiana

      I believe that Martha's parents were Emerson Strunk and Nancy Jane Tucker
      and that Martha's date of birth was March 1, 1869 in Pulaski County.

      I have the marriage certificate for Mayme Sellers. It shows she was born
      August 14, 1897 in Pulaski County, her present residence was Dugger,
      Indiana (Sullivan County), Father: Sherman Sellers born Pulaski County,
      KY, Mother: Martha Strunk born Pulaski County, KY, both living in Dugger,
      IN. She married Gilbert Kluesner born April 25, 1892 in Perry County,
      Indiana son of Fred Kluesner (deceased) and Jane Critchfield living in
      Dugger, IN. They married on August 1, 1914 in Sullivan County by Robert
      Kirkham, J.P.

      Minnie Sellers (my grandmother) married Arthur Wilson son of William
      Wilson and Catharine Murry in Vigo County, IN on March 4, 1922 by James
      P. Madigan, J.P. Minnie died September 2, 1985 in Clinton, Vermillion
      County, IN. Arthur Wilson died November 10, 1962 in Indianapolis,
      Marion County, IN at the VA Hospital. Sometime after Arthur died Minnie
      remarried to Peter Voyzey. I'm not sure when but Peter died before she
      did.

      Chester was married to Georgia ? (don't know what her last name was.
      Then he married Freida ? (not sure what her last name was). Chester died
      October 20, 1981 in Terre Haute, Vigo County, IN.

      I don't have any information on Leonard and Harry yet. When I find out
      something on them I will pass it along.
