• Notes	William was a farmer and a direct descendant of the first SELBY who was a Saxon sea captain and founder of the town of Selby, Yorkshire, Engand. The town of Selby existed before the Norman Conquest in 1066. The family of William Selby sees to have sprung from William de Seleby who occurs as the Abbat's forest in 1200 AD. (From Selby Stratton)
