Jane Sellers, the youngest known daughter of Hardy Sellers and Mary Cook passed away sometime before 14 Jul 1834. Jane was borne about 1795 in Chesterfield County, South Carolina. Before her death at age 39, she was married and had one child a son Iverson L. Briley. 


Jane Sellers, age 30, and Iverson H. Briley were married before 1825 in Chesterfield, South Carolina.  Their only child, a son, Iverson L. Briley was born abt 1825.  Jane (Sellers) Briley died before 14 Jul 1834. On 14 July 1834, Jane’s father, Hardy Sellers, my 5th Great Grandfather wrote his Last Will and Testament. On 12 January 1835, my 5th Great Grandfather Hardy Sellers, Sr. passed away in Chesterfield County, South Carolina. 


In Item 7 of his Last Will he noted that his daughter Jane was deceased, and he was leaving his grandson Iverson L. Briley a stipend of $300 Dollars to earn interest until he reached the age of Twenty-one.  Iverson L. Briley was believed to be about 10 years of age. 

7.  To the son of my deceased daughter Jane Brily, Iverson L. Brily I give three hundred dollars to bare interest from my death until he arrives to the age of twenty-one years which is to be a full share of my estate both real and personal.


On 9 June 1851, Iverson L. Briley, age about 26, married Sarah L. Higdon in Franklin County, Mississippi. Sarah L. Higdon, daughter of Daniel Higdon and Louisiana Gilbert, was born about 1836 in Mississippi. 

It is not known when Iverson L. Briley left Chesterfield. Both Father and Son can be found in Louisiana by 1860 but not together in the same household.  


Iverson served in the military in 1862–1865 and was a Prisoner of War (POW). He died before 6 Apr 1870 at the age of 45.
