My Hometown: Seymour, Wisconsin

Decent Essays
My hometown is Seymour, Wisconsin, the population is 3,443. The city is located in the Town of Seymour and the Town of Osborn. May I add Seymour is not the biggest town.
Seymour was found in 1868, it was named after Horatio Seymour. Seymour was once called squeedunk which means “Little settlement” or “Village”. Over the years more settlers came to Seymour, Willis and Dan Mungers arrived in 1864. As more settlements were established in the area, the population grew. On March 1, 1877 Seymour became a recognized town.
One of Seymour’s events is burger fest or as most people call it hamburger days. Near where the Museum is, there are activities and in that area is the ketchup slide. For me personally my aunt and mom have done it so I would go
