I am not related to Mildred L. Holland, but I am a 6th cousin 2x removed to her husband Milo G. Seaver. Our common Seaver ancestor is my 7th great-grandfather, Joseph Seaver (1672-1754).
There are over 10,000 Seaver "stories" in my family tree - and this is one of them. Life happens, accidentally and intentionally, and sometimes a person has a great obituary with complete family information. I am glad that I can honor Mildred L. (Holland) Seaver today.
You never know when a descendant or relative will find this blog post and learn something about their ancestors or relatives, or will provide more information about them to me.
