Born: December 19, 1789, County Limerick, Ireland.
Died: October 1870.
Son of the vicar of Cahirelly, diocese of Cashel, Seymour spent much time in literary pursuits from an early age. At age 21, he published Vital Christianity Exhibited in a Series of Letters on the Most Important Subjects of Religion, Addressed to Young Persons. This work, written during an illness, contains several of his hymns and other poetical pieces. He also edited a new edition of Dr. Gillies’ Life of Whitefield, and wrote a “Memoir,” which was prefixed to the Reliques of Ancient Irish Poetry, by Miss Charlotte Brooke, 1816. His most important work was his Life and Times of Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, 1839. Seymour lived for some time in Naples, Italy (circa 1839-1847), then at Bristol, England.
