Alaska Quake

The earthquake in Alaska today is “timely” given my recent posts.  Investigating the Alaska wiki page, I first go to the History section and find:

William H. Seward, the United States Secretary of State, negotiated the Alaska Purchase (also known as Seward's Folly) with the Russians in 1867 for $7.2 million. 

The surname Seward contains a cryptic “see/sea ward”.  And this connects with the danger in the sea— the earthquake.  Note from his wiki page:

• William Henry Seward (May 16, 1801 – October 10, 1872) 

Rob MacGregor (see earlier posts) was born on his birthday .   Here is info on others mentioned on theAlaska wiki page:

Lyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973)

Donald Edwin Young (born June 9, 1933) 
William Martin Walker (born April 16, 1951)
