in farming. At the end of that period he learned the carpenter's
trade with Peter L. Conklin, of Hackensack, with whom he was associated
for three years. Subsequently he worked at railroading for a few years,
and then engaged in farming at Rivervale, Bergen County, which he still
follows. Mr. Seaman has served on the Board of Education and for some time has been Treasurer of the Township Committee. He attends the Reformed Church, and has always maintained an excellent reputation as a public spirited, progressive, and enterprising citizen. He married Margaret L. Demarest, a member of an old and respected Bergen County family, and has three children: Lilie M., Edward, and David.
