I'm Bill Seward. My father was from Richwood. I was having a bit of "missing my Dad" and was surfing the Internet, looking for things about Richwood. On this page the picture captioned "Richwood men in a group photo. Richwood W. VA. ", I believe that the man in the first row, third from the right, is my grandfather, George Ernest "Ern" Seward. He was one of Jeremiah Seward's children. I spent my summers in Richwood as a teenager in the early to mid- 70s. I was back in 2002 with my Dad on our last fishing trip together, and then in 2011 to scatter his and my mother's ashes. I was totally shocked as to what has happened to the town that had so many memories. Richwood has fallen on hard times, and I fear it may never recover. It's sad that it has come to that. However, no one can take away the good memories I have of the place.
