About
Who were the Sewards from Auburn, NY? To determine who "counts" as family, we began with the residents of 33 South Street, Auburn, NY. This includes all family members who lived in the house, their significant others, friends, and descendants from 1817-1920. In addition to family members, letters also include correspondence from members of the household staff. Learn more about the Seward family.
