Selah Paine Schryver was born on 15 August 1817.  He was the fifth child and first son of Henry Sheer and Ruby Payne Schryver.  According to information we have, he was a laborer who was married twice.  He died on 26 March 1894.

Selah first married Almira (or perhaps Alvira) Hector.  They had three children.

Selah later married Martha Ann Whitney who was born ca. 1829.  We have no other information on her.

Information we have is from the Burch book and is identified as having come from the 1850 census.  The family lived in Pleasant Valley, Dutchess County.  

The children of Selah Paine and Almira Hector Schryver were part of the sixth generation of the Schryver family in America:
  Emily G. Schryver  b: ca. 1840; d: unknown
  Andrew Skidmore Schryver b: ca 1841; d: 7 October 1920
  Delia Schryver b: 1843: d: unknown

The children of Selah Paine and Martha Ann Whitney Schryver were part of the sixth generation of the Schryver family in America:
  Anne Amelia Schryver b: 20 August 1849; d: 29 September 1923 ... m. George Andrews
  Julia Maria Schryver b: 27 December 1852; d: unknown ... our info shows that Julia also married George Andrews.  Did she marry her sister's husband after Anne's death or could this be incorrect?
  Sarah Eliza Schryver b: 7 October 1854; d: unknown ... m. Edward M. Cook
  Roby Carolyn Schryver  b: 26 May 1858; d: unknown ... Roby was apparently married twice, first to a man named Reynolds and later to an Ambrose J. Fenn ... Her name was in our records as Ruby Carrie but we have been contacted by Susan Fenn McClen, a great-granddaughter.  According to Susan, she is in the census records as Roby but apparently dropped that first name and went by Caroline or Carrie.  Roby was a mistake in spelling.  She was supposed to be Ruby for her grandmother Ruby Payne Schryver
  John Henry Schryver b: 25 April 1860; d: 7 August 1863 ... died young, age 3 years, 3 months, 13 days
  Milo Seeley Schryver  b: 16 January 1862; d: unknown ... m. Fannie Caroline Osborn of Pawling NY on 30 July 1881.  They had two children.
  Lester Stephen Schryver  b: 25 June 1864; d: unknown ... m. a woman named Bessie.
