Stedman & Seymour

According to Lura Woodside Watkins, "Early New England Potters and Their Wares", the Stedman & Seymour company is not well documented. In 1831 Absalom Stedman, the former partner of Daniel Goodale in Hartford, advertised a stoneware pottery on Water Street in New Haven. Stoneware marked "Stedman/ New Haven" and "Stedman & Seymour/ New Haven" have been found. It is unknown which member of the Seymour family of potters was involved in the Stedman & Seymour partnership, or the exact dates of their involvement.
