Hi Bill,
I found a page in a biographical encyclopedia at my local library
which contained the following info:
Jacque de Sellaire (1660) met Clothilde de Valois (huguenots) at
Deux Pont
(zweibrucken) and were married in France around 1682, had two sons,
fled from France after the revocation of Edict of Nantes, later fled to
England under protection of Queen Ann. Came to America in 1710,
(Jacque became citizen of Great Britian in 1709.)
Jacque died during the voyage to America, his widow and two sons settled
in Scholarie, New York. The eldest son, Jean Henri (Hans Heinrich)" Zellers"
(name changed in America to accomodate German atmosphere) was born in France
around 1684. He married Anna Maria Briegel.
The rest of the entry talks about his son Francis Paul (Paul Frantz),
then Francis Paul's son Daniel, (one of seven children),
then Daniel's daughter Henrietta C. The second son of Jacque and Clothilde
is not mentioned by name. If you need the rest of the page, let me know.

BILL,
IF I have followed your chart correctly - We could use more
History/Census/Wills etc in Franklin Co, OHIO
Please send any info you have on this county.- Sometimes starting
earlier and Proving back helps.
I have corrected some of your Peter/Bill ZELLER links and added more-
I'm sure you have read info posted on NewYork and Pa pertaining to these

Do you have
another email address for Bill Zeller. He had Peter5471@aol.com , but I tried to send him an
email and it bounced.
I was
reading his page and I think I am descended from the same line as him
(settle Union Co., PA).
Thanks,
