Ok, so we know that Robert BULLINGTON married Adria (Actually, I believe it is Adrianna) SELLS:
http://www.tampicohistoricalsociety.citymax.com/articles/article/1323792/56177.htm

According to the www.LDS.org family history posting (www.familysearch.org) has Adria Anna SELLS b August 23, 1887 Walnut, Bureau Co., IL, d October 18, 1916 Walnut, Bureau Co., IL.

We also know that there were a lot of SELLS living in the area (see below). Does anyone know who was Adrianna's parents (L.M. SELL is who?), grandparents and siblingts??
