Surnames: SEYMOUR, CADWELL
Michael Lemuel Seymour was born abt 1824 in Hartford Cty CT and married Maria Louisa Cadwell. I am trying to track any of their daughters forward. I found a daughter LILLY H Seymour (born abt 1862), and a CARRIE L (born abt 1865). There may be more. Any help? I am hoping for an all-female match going forward from one of the daughters for an important DNA match.

I hope that this helps, I don't have info. beyond the 1896 date in this book, but let me know if you need additional info. I do know that the Hartford town hall does have birth records from the 1890's on site, and that they should be listed in ledger form. Good luck. The indication of "unm" indicates unmarried. The book was published in 1939.
