The Seth siblings left their home in Fife, Scotland, to join the Victoria Colony, but contracted typhoid fever while traveling up the Mississippi River. In the summer of 1873, Margaret, 27, William, 25, Robert, 24, Thomas, 18, and Jane, 16, were laid to rest here. They had also lost their mother, Jeanne Seth, in St. Louis, and were survived by their father, John Seth, and three brothers, James, John Jr., and Smith.
