Person:Joshua Seale (1)

Joshua Seale's name is engraved upon a plaque which hangs in the Texas State Capital Building in Austin, Texas. The plaque recognizes some of Texas' original settlers who had fought in the American Revolutionary War. A marker next to Joshua's grave marker is inscribed: "To the memory of Rev. Richard Seale and his wife Phyllis, b. abt. 1810 d. abt 1890. "Uncle Dick & Aunt Phyllis" came to Texas with the Seale's and founded Dixie Church about 1/2 mile south of the cemetery. They remained with the Seale's and did church work as long as they lived." Richard and Phyllis Seale were negro slaves of Joshua and Ellender and remained with them after the Civil War.
