The Seymour Home, Hudson, Ohio, 1843

Built in 1843 by Prof. Nathan Perkins Seymour and occupied by the Seymour family until April, 1891; photographed about 1863. The two ladies in front of the house are his daughter, Sarah Day Seymour (afterwards Mrs. Parsons), and a friend. The house is said to have been modeled after a family home in Hartford, the builder's native town, and was also said to be large enough for the entire faculty of Western Reserve College at the time it was built. Courtesy of his grandson, William E. Parsons, now on the faculty of the Yale School of Fine Arts.
