Notes for Edgar Elsey Sellers

He fell out of a tree at around 6 years old and broke his left arm so badly that it had to be amputated^{288, Cleveland
Co, NC; Edgar Elzy Sellers}.

According to his sister Lorene he got away with a lot because people felt sorry for him because of his arm. He also played on the sympathy of the girls to get dates, and was always out late. He would come home so late that his father would tell him to feed the mules their breakfast before he came to bed. His brothers Ernest and Worth would complain about him getting into bed with them in the early morning hours with his cold feet.⁴⁰⁶

He died some seven months before his youngest son Frank was born.
