Samuel Sellers (1788-1857) of North Carolina arrived with his large family at Three Notch Road on January 29, 1835. In what was then the Missouri Beat of Pike County, the first post office in the area was established 2.5 miles west of present-day Perote in Bullock County, and Sellers served as postmaster between 1846 and 1850. His original home stood on land near this cemetery.
