Since Seymour died in 1919 at only 41 years of age, there was a chance he signed a WW1 draft registration card; so I went to ancestry.com to see if I could find one.

Unfortunately, I found nothing for him. I found his death record in the New York death record index, saying he died from TB.

According to his obituary, which I found in the Brooklyn Times Union on newspapers.com, he was found physically unfit for military service when WW1 started; which probably explains the lack of a draft registration card.
