In various records, Selah's first name is spelled Celah and Seliah as the the marriage sources indicate.

In the marriage bond document between Selah and James, Jacob Falconbury is identified as Selah's father.

Selah died just twor days after her daughter, Mary E., and they were buried together as the headstone shows. An image of the headstone is in the "Photographs" section of this web site.
