"The Giants of Seville"

Seville's most famous residents, Captain Martin Van Buren Bates (1845-1919) and Anna Swan Bates (1848-1889) settled here ion 1873. Their notoriety stemmed from their dramatic stature: Martin, a former Confederate soldier form Kentucky, stood 7 fee 8 inches tall; Anna, a world be teacher from Nova Scotia, stood 7 feet 11 1/2 inches tall. They met on the carnival circuit in New Jersey in 1871 and wedded in England the same year in a ceremony orchestrated by Queen Victoria.
