About the Burial Places of Nathaniel (II) Seeley and Hannah Bennett, Nathaniel (III) Seeley and Hannah Odell/O'Dell, and Nathaniel (IV) Seeley and Elizabeth Jackson
There are Find-a-Grave Memorials for Nathaniel (II) Seeley and Hannah Bennett, Nathaniel (III) Seeley and Hannah Odell/O'Dell, and Nathaniel (IV) Seeley and Elizabeth Jackson, all indicating that these individuals are buried in the Old Stratfield Cemetery, USA, CT, Fairfield, Bridgeport. While this is a logical burial place, it appears that there are no surviving markers for any of them, and no burial or cemetery records. In addition, Hannah (Bennett) Seeley may have remarried, and may be buried under another surname, perhaps even in this cemetery. Information regarding the burial places was furnished to the person who manages these memorials by that person's Seeley great-grandmother. Despite what many genealogists think, we have found that information passed down within a family is usually quite reliable. We have even used information learned in that way to say that Alexander Wilson is buried in Trinity Cemetery, USA, NY, New York City. Although, at this time, we see no way in which to verify that these individuals are, in fact, buried in this cemetery, the memorials may very well be correct and, at the least, still keep these individuals close in memory.
