DESCENTANTS-RESEARCHER: Information sent to T.Mason on 25 Apr 2002 by Paul Weitfle [PWeitfle@aol.com]. Indicates "most of my data came from either Federal Census reports, or from this very impressive web site: [HYPERLINK http://www.cagenweb.com/re/ventura ] Ventura County CA Web site Ventura County Genealogical Society has spent hundreds of hours compiling an index to marriages, obits, and some court records. I have found numerous clues on this site. I've also used the Social Security Death Index, and the Calif Death Index, to confirm some of my data."

DOB is a conjecture based on the marriage date of his parents. He was 11 days old when he died. There was another son Edward who died in 1879. So the date of death is just a wild guess. Note: He does not show up in either the 1860 or 1870 census records for John Russum Seaton.
