 +About Me:\\
 +I am [[Contact Me|Jim Seymour]] from Hillsboro, Oregon, USA.  While I have done no original research on the 
 +various Seymour families, I felt I had sufficient interest in the subject along with the 
 +computer skills to collate and present other people's research on the web.  This site started 
 +as "The Seymour Immigration Page" back in 1999 and was migrated to the s560.com domain in 2007.
 +I can also be found on [[http://Ancestry.com|Ancestry.com]] under the username "jdseymour".
