In February of 1836, Mr. Bottsford stated that he had arrived in Texas from Mississippi, November 28, 1835, and that he was 27 years of age. Other than the fact that Seymour was a member of Captain William Wood's Company at the Battle of San Jacinto, we don't know anything about him. It seems he signed up to serve the Texas army, and was to be discharged on July 11, 1836, which turned out to be the day of his death. We assume he died in Harris County, since his Probate was filed in Harris County in 1838. There is no record of his burial.
