Seward House
Seward House Review
William H. Seward (1801-72), a governor of New York, U.S. senator, and secretary of state under Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, lived in this distinguished Federal-style home. The Seward family occupied the house (built in 1816-17) until 1951, and virtually every object here—the furnishings, the library, the tableware—was theirs.
