  • Notes 
    • According to "The Pierce Project" web site, Seabury and family lived in New Bedford, MA, & Barre, VT.

      The death record for his daughter, Alice G. Harps, says Seabury was born in Somerset., MA. I am not sure of this.

      In the 1850 Federal Census, Seabury & Hope Peirce, ages 38 & 35, are living at Tiverton, RI, with their four children: Alice 12, Seabury 7, Phebe 9, & Ella 4.

      In the MA State Census of 1 May 1865, Seabury, Phebe, and Ella are living in New Bedford.

      Seabury is on the tax list for 1866 at Orange, VT. He died there 31 March 1873 at age 60 y 10 m. His occupation was given as cooper.
