<DIV>George Benson, on page 15 of "York Bellfounders", 1898, discusses William
Seller, who had his bellfoundry at Jubbergate, York in the seventeenth century.
He says a large number of his productions are in North Lincolnshire. " He used
several stamps, with date and letters W.S. on his bells, and black letter or
Roman text." He was succeeded by Edward Seller.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>He also cast crotals of various sizes, with W S on them, and I suspect he
also cast some early handbells. See "Musical Handbells" pages 109-110</DIV>
