i have my family that started with him... all the way to today's generation... and i have up to his great grandfather... so i think i go back to 1714 or somewhere thereabout's

an interesting fact... more Sell family members died in the union army than in the confederate, and almost all sell's came from germany via new jersey and/or pennsylvania...

there was a bodenheimer that enlisted and died with him too, they were best friends.... i think his name was christian...
