In my experience of researching part of the Devon branch of this family, Selley = Selleys = Silley = Silly = Seeley = Seely = Seelye = Seally = Sealy = Cealy = .....!!!
In an age when few could read, the spelling was as good as the person who heard it and had to write it down. So children of the same family could quite easily have been christened and/or registered under different spellings.
Good luck!!
