Harriet Sellman was born about 1821 in Brown County, OH, a daughter of Henry & Susannah (nee Shaw) Sellman.
Harriet married William R Maffett on 04 MAR 1840 in Brown County, OH. They had seven known children: Susan (born 1841), Louisa (born 1844), Elizabeth (born 1851), William (born 1855), Martha (born 1857), Eugene (born 1860), and James (born 1862). Several of their daughters as well as their granddaughter Kit were seamstresses, a trade they undoubtedly learned from Harriet. William, Sr. worked as a farmer, great hoop maker, stirrup maker, cooper, and carpenter. The family lived in Brown County, OH until they moved to Felicity, Clermont County, OH prior to the 1860 US Census. About 1865, the family moved to Marion County, IL.
Harriet most likely died between 1880 (where she appears in the US Census) and 1900 (where her husband is a widower in the US Census) in Marion County, IL – no death or burial record has yet been found for her.
Harriet’s husband William R (possibly “Reuben”) Maffett was born 03 JAN 1819 in Harrison County, OH, a son of Tunis & Sarah B (nee McCormick) Maffett. William, Sr. died 06 FEB 1902 in Salem, Marion County, IL per county death certificate with burial in Salem (possibly East Lawn Cemetery).
