History of Seymour, Connecticut with Biographies and Genealogies by W. C. Sharpe was published by Record Print, Seymour, Connecticut in 1879.

I must admit that what first caught my eye about this volume was that Seymour was one of the surnames in my extended family and that my direct line was in Connecticut. Then I started to go through the book. It is full of information about the Botsford, Holbrook and Lee families (all part of my direct line). In reviewing this tome for today’s post, I realized I need to go back though its pages and glean more information. Since I first reviewed the contents, my research has expanded my knowledge of persons who just might be hiding between these two covers.
