William Oliver Sellman was almost certainly named for the Rev. William Oliver, an Episcopal minister well known in Frederick County.
At the time of his marriage he acquired from the Pooles the farm in the Barnesville-Poolesville area named "Mountain Vale", originally a Sprigg estate called "Clean Drinking". Here all his children were born, and here he and his wife spent their entire married lives. The house in which they lived is still standing, and is in a good state of preservation.

The township of Sellman was named for William Oliver Sellman, a highly-respected local figure who served as the community's first postmaster in 1874. Sellman was Captain of the confederate "Barnesville Guards" during the Civil War, and served as state senator.
