Henry Seymour (May 30, 1780 – August 26, 1837) was an American merchant, banker and politician from New York. ==Life== Born in Litchfield, Litchfield County, Connecticut, Seymour was the sixth child and fifth son of Major Moses Seymour (1742–1826), a politician who served as an officer in the American Revolution, and his wife Molly (Marsh) Seymour. His brother, Horatio became a successful businessman and banker, and went on to serve two terms in the United States Senate. In 1801 Henry Seymour left Connecticut with $300 from his father. Settling in Onondaga County, New York, he used the money to establish a general store in Pompey Hill. Seymour prospered with the arrival of new immigrants from the New England region, and soon became a prominent member of the community. In January 1807 he married Mary Ledyard Forman (1785–1859), of Matawan, New Jersey, daughter of General Johnathan Forman and Mary (Ledyard) Forman. They had six children, two boys and four girls. Their son Horatio Seymour was twice Governor of New York and was the Democratic nominee for U.S. President in 1868, while their daughter Julia Catherine married U.S. Senator Roscoe Conkling.〔Stewart Mitchell, ''Horatio Seymour of New York'' (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1938), pgs. 5-7.〕
