2. 1790 Census Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com): there are George SELLERS/SELLARS/ZELLARS/SOLLARS/etc. in the census, but none in Northampton Co., PA, or in NC. There is a Philip SELLER in Northampton Co., PA, but with only one male over age 16, so George is not living with his parents. There are four BEST households in Lincoln Co., NC. Of these four, only one has more than a single male over age 16, and that one is Boston BEST (n.b., "Boston" is usually a misspelling of "Bastian," the short form of Sebastian). Conrad CILLERS is in Lincoln Co., NC.
