I'm interested in whatever connections you have for the MAINS family. I descend from Eli SELBY & Ruth SHIPLEY through Harriet SELBY, who m. Fredk. GROVES and moved from Perry Co., OH, to Vernon Co., WI. Eldest child of Eli was Hannah SELBY (8 July 1795, MD - Mar. 1872, OH) who m. Sep. 1815, George MAINS, who d. 30 Mar. 1875, OH. Did some of George MAINS & Hannah's children or grandchildren migrate to Vernon Co., WI?
