Daughter of Matthew B. Sellers I and Angelina "Annie" Lewis.

Great-great-great-great granddaughter of William Sellers

The family traveled often from the house in Baltimore to Grahn, Kentucky, as her brother Matthew was experimenting with early fight. While there she had her horse named Bird.

Never married. Following the death of her mother Annie Lewis Sellers, Annabel and her brother remained in the Baltimore house and traveled the world in the 1920's, while corresponding with cousins in Kentucky. But after 1930, she and her brother Samuel just sat at home. She would read detective stories and continued to write letters to her cousins, keeping copies of every one she mailed.

She wrote a novel. It was rejected by a publisher; he said it had nothing to do with the real world. But the real world never got into that house. No one ever came in, except the man who checked the meter.”

She passed away and left her brother alone in the large three-story house, where he died a couple years following her.

Following her death, her baby room hasn't been changed at all; the same decorated crib is there, the same trunks of dolls the family imported from Europe, and her collection of fans in the attic.

The family is all at rest together at the cemetery, with exception to her brother Matthew.
