22 Sept 1996 e-mail from Janet Burton (yorkbur@aol.com) reports the

following info re Sarah Seymour, which was sent to her by Marion York,

of Hurricane Utah:

"Md. Pub C Vol. 3: Lord Seymour at Court 13 June 1662, at Whitehall

(London, England). Vol. 16, John Seymour, Governor of Maryland,

1704-1706, maybe longer. Also called "His Excellency, Colonel John

Seymour," died 30 July 1709. This John (Seymour) is believed to be Sarah

Seymour's father. He was born 8 November 1635, and married

Joane/Joan/Johanna ??? He was no doubt born in England, but these

records do not mention that.
