Phillip A. Sellers is my 1st cousin 4 times removed. He was born 3 May 1818, a son of Roland Sellers and Margaret Eddins. He married Martha Ann Brooks about 1844.
While out in his field yesterday morning Mr. Phillip A Sellers, of Lilesville township, very suddenly yielded to an attack of heart failure and expired when he fell. Anson County had no more worthy citizen. He was 82 years old and was loved, honored and revered by every one who knew him. His death will be deplored by the entire county. 1
Phillip A. Sellers and his wife are buried at Shiloh United Methodist Church Cemetery, Cairo, Anson County, North Carolina. 2
