Actually a BUNCH of us are descendants of WAS!! (Good to here from Bob
and Ruby btw ...) Of those who joined this list when we first started
it, nearly half of us are descendants or very close relatives of William
Atkinson Selby. If you would like to dig thru some archived list info
or find links on how to post your info you can go here:

And greetings cousin Shirley! I TOO am descended from WAS thru his
daughter Rhoda Selby Tate (sister to Hasty I believe) who married
William Tate in KY, lived for a time in Rush Co IN and is buried in Tate
Cemetary in Jasper Co., IL just outside of Bogota.
