  • Notes 
    • Not convinced this Linus Seely was the husband of Sarah Edmundson. no proof he ever left New Brunswick, how did he marry Sarah in Ohio and she ended up in Texas. However, in an article (http://www.helium.com/items/492733-biography-sarah-emma-edmundson?page=2) the following is found: "... Sarah took the profits from her very popular book and moved back to Canada, where she met, fell in love with and married Linus Seelye. They moved back to the United States and raised three sons. "

      BURIAL: Cedar Hill Cemetery, assume this is the one in (west) Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada by that name
