Requested Information

Bill reports that in doing family research he has come up with a Hannah Seeley from Stamford, CT born about 1800, give or take a couple of years. She married Zabadee Badeau (no date) and then they had a daughter born in Carmel, NY on 28 Jun 1822. Mary A. Badeau is Bill’s great great grandmother. Any information on Hannah Seeley would be helpful.

Initial Response Information
Query Responder: SGS Query Editor

John Seely, SGS Database coordinator, responded that the name he has for Hannah’s spouse is Zebedee Budeau. Hannah was mentioned in her father’s will filed 14 Mar 1828. Her parent’s names are William Henry and Mary “Polly” (Stevens) Seeley. William H. Seeley (SGS # 3174) is buried in Gilead Cemetery, Carmel, Putnam Co., NY. Hannah is in the 9th generation of the Obadiah line, according to Esther Houtz Walter’s notebooks. Hannah had 8 siblings. We do not have any data on her descendants, so we would appreciate receiving a Family Group Sheet and Ancestor Chart showing Bill’s connection to Hannah and Zebedee Budeau/Badeau.
