The Next Mr. & Mrs. Seward

*Held at the Cayuga Museum Carriage House Theater, 203 Genesee Street*

By 1876, a changing of the guard had taken place at the Seward home at 33 South Street. William and Frances Seward– who lived lives of political ambition and often radical idealism– were replaced by the next generation. William Seward Jr. and his wife, Janet Watson Seward, espoused different values, but were no less determined to leave their mark on this community. In this talk, Seward House Museum Director of Education Jeff Ludwig, explores their legacy, and what Auburn meant to them during the centennial of the American Revolution.
