__NOTOC__

==Birth==
Selah Lounsbury was born about 1811, in New York State<ref>U.S. Census Research</ref>, likely in [[Rensselaerville]] where his parents were living at the time. His father was [[Nathan Lounsbury (B. 1780) | Nathan Lounsbury]] and his wife Sarah.

==Life==
From research of [[Porter Wright]], reported at the 1984 Lounsbury reunion in [[Rensselaerville]]:<br><br>
''The Lounsbury family had a tradition of caring for their own. Daniel D. on [[Lot 112]], Williams on [[Lot 111]], and Elisha on [[Lot 130]] each had farms contained three fourths of a square mile [combined]. Where their farms joined, they walled in a small plot and built a small house on it for brother Selah. Selah was a good, hard-working man, but somehow he was never able to accumulate much of this world's goods, and so his brothers cared for him and his family.''

==Marriage & Children==
Selah married [[Margaret Salisbury]] and they had three known children:

*[[Orville Lounsbury]] (1854-1870)
*[[Lewis M. Lounsbury]] (B. Abt 1856)
*[[Phillip Wesley Lounsbury]] (1858-1927)

==Death==
Selah died sometime after 1870.
