===================
Seaborn, born September 9, 1900 in Village Springs, Blount County, Alabama and died April 3, 1984 in Vincent, Shelby, Alabama. It must be noted that year of birth varied five times with Seaborn. The Social Security death index states 1898, the death certificate indicates 1902, the military indicates 1903, the marriage certificate indicates 1904 and the census indicates 1900. Since the census identified children born in 1898, 1900, and 1902, I will go with the earlier census and keep his year of birth at 1898.

Another note is the use of the middle name "McCoy". Seaborn's marriage certificate state his name to S. B. Posey. The 1910 census states him as a Junior. If his is the case, Seaborn's middle initial is "B". Seabe's death certificate indicates his middle name to be McCoy. The "McCoy" name is an Ellard family name and can be found in his uncle's name 'William McCoy Ellard. It can also be found with the William's daughter's nickname as "Coy". The name has been transferred to Peggy Posey Vick's son James McCoy "Coy" and son Jerry McCoy Posey. It has not been proven or disproved that Seabe's middle name was changed to McCoy.

Seaborn married Earline Robie Lacey on February 6, 1937 in Bessemer, Alabama. She was born August 8, 1920 in Birmingham, Alabama. Her father (Frank Reuben Lacy) died in 1920 when she was four months old and she and her brother Oliver Lee Lacey lived with their paternal grandparents, James O. and Sarah Jane Cox. Since they were very old, it is presumed that Earline and Seabe lied about their ages to get married in order for Earline to leave the house. The marriage certificate indicates her birth to be in 1918. There is proof that her brother Oliver Lee Lacey was born in 1918 as per birth and death certificate. Seabe was a WWI veteran and a private in the 167th Infantry, better known as the Rainbow Division. He fought in France and served from 1917-1919. It is felt that Seaborn lied about his age to join the Army because his father died in 1915 and mother in 1916. The youngest children were sent to an orphanage and would seem that joining the Army was a way to be on his own. Seabe and Earline had four daughters and four sons. Line of work was generally in the ore and coal mines and farming. The family also moved to Florida to work in the citrus mills as graders and packers.
=================================
The time after Seabe's mother died in 1916 is unknown as to events. The girls went to an orphanage, That left Clarence, Dallas, Arthur and George. The time after the war and during the depression was extremely difficult and the boys did a lot of riding on freight trains and traveled to Kentucky and West Virginia to work in the mines. It could be presumed that they traveled to more lucrative towns outside of Alabama.
