William Seal, and his brother, John Seal, Jr., came to Daviess Co. along with their in-laws, the Lents and Sharum families. William and Sophia spent many years in the St. Mary's community and are buried in the cemetery. They left many descendants, as they were the parents of 13 children; Nancy Miranda, who married James M. Dant; Louisa Ann who married Thomas C. McAtee. Elizabeth Ursula, who married John Brothers; Sophia Margaret who married James B. Padgett, Jr.; William Marshall who married Minerva J. Padgett; Christena Rebecca who married Charles Prince; James Gabriel who married Mary Brewer; Missouri Catherine, (twin of James G.); John Bernard who married Mary Alice McKinney; George Oliver who married Mary Ann Blandford; Thomas Addison who married Elizabeth A.

According to his daughter Minerva's obit William was a prominent farmer of the Van Buren Township during his life and served as county commissioner at one time.

While this biography of William says he was born about 1804, family documents state he was born about 1789. If I can find more documentation on this, I will adjust this record appropriately.
