  • Many online genealogies give Edward Selleck, son of Nathan Selleck, and Hannah Bates as the parents of James Harvey Selleck. Nathan Selleck is known to have married Elizabeth Selleck in 1772. I have found no evidence that Nathan Selleck had a second wife named Hannah Bates who was the mother of James Harvey Selleck. There are a few published secondary accounts of the Selleck family that I have not been able to obtain. Perhaps the evidence is located within those publications.

    James Harvey Selleck's middle name is also seen as Hervey.
