.6 He lived in 1865 at Mentz, Cayuga, New York, USA
.2 He lived on 1 June 1875 at Mentz, Cayuga, New York, USA
; Relation to Head: Head.3 He married Harriet Edgerly, daughter of Alva H Edgerly and Electia Rooker, in 1880; This marriage is a best guess. The two appear to have never lived together, but she did file for his civil war pension after his death in 1921.14 John H Seymour married an unknown person in 1882 at Port Byron, Cayuga, New York, USA
; In the 1910 census, it lists a 2nd marriage for John. Is this the marriage to Harriett? This info comes from the Port Byron Historian and seems to line up as Harriett claims John's pension shortly after his death in 1921. He lived in June 1890 at Port Byron, Cayuga, New York, USA
