Beecher Seely & Inez Brown IL>KS 1867-1961
Posted by: James Patrick (ID *****4716) Date: March 28, 2006 at 11:34:20

We are interested in tracing down descendants of Beecher Seely and Inez Brown.
Beecher W. H. Seely was born Abt. 1867 in IL, and died Aft. 1910.
He married Inez Brown in about 1880, daughter of Byron Brown and Charlotte Lucky.
Inez was born 15 Dec 1874 in Iowa, and died 1961 (Anecdotal).
We have anecdotal information that Inez subsequently married a man named "Seabolt",
but I don't have any such documentation.

Although the 1920 Census lists Inez Seely as a widow, there is a listing
in the Park Co Montana Death Record, noting the death of
Beecher W. Seely (b.1866) on 07 Nov 1929.
I wonder if he abandoned the family and she claimed widowhood
in order to be able to remarry?

The father of Beecher Seely was Samuel Seely, born Abt. 1833 in IL.
He married Harriet Tyler 24 Aug 1856 in LaSalle Co IL.
She was born Abt. 1833 in NY.

Our ultimate goal is assembling information about all of the descendants of
Benjamin Brown (b.1807 Greene Co TN - 1881 Fulton Co IL) and
Elizabeth Spears (b.1805 NC/SC-1881 Fulton Co IL).

Their son was Byron Stacy Brown (1835 IN - aft 1910 OK), who married
Charlotte Lucky (1833 KY - 1903 KS or OK).

Among Byron and Charlotte's children was our Inez Brown.
