sellers or sellars

[romanby]

I am researching the sellers/sellars family in the East yorkshire area
My GGranfather was  Richard George Sellers born in Foxholes in around 1857.
I cannot find his birth certificate although I believe he was christened at West Heslerton 13/11/1864.  He married Mary Ann Bulmer at the registry office Scarborough 1877.
Any help with  Richard  G Sellers and his earlier family would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Romanby,

I wonder if this could be the Richard Seller you are looking for as it ties in with what KGarrard has found on the 1861 census?

birth date: 24 Jul 1857

WHOOPS!! Just noticed that you have already found the above

many thanks for your replies  KGarrard and JJen2

I had already found the family on 1861 census I just would have liked to have found a birth certificate for George Richard Sellers to confirm that I am on the right track . I know his father was called John from his marriage certificate .
I will look into the George Seller b 1858 Driffield District - Foxholes was in this district.
Having already bought 3 incorrect birth certificates I was hoping someone had George Richard and his father John already in their family tree - but i suppose that would spoil all the fun.

You didn't mention that you already had the 1861 census and marriage certificate?

It's usually helpful to mention these things.

Sorry .  I am new to Rootschat and am not sure how much information to put in to begin with.
