Did they live in or near Marion Co? >> A I suspect they lived in the area. They were friends of Calvin Johnston while Calvin and family lived in Tullahoma Tn. As pre civil war troubles increased in the area, the Simpsons moved to Alton Mo. In abt 1861 Calvin moved to Ohio Co. Ky. Calvin's son, Lewis married Joanna Simpson,who lived in Alton Mo.with her familyand brought her back to Ky. By 1886 Calvin , Louis and Joanna moved to Ark,but on the way stopped and picked up Joannas Parents and family in Alton who joined them on the trip to Ark, They were headed to King Ark in Sevier Co to work in the Antimony mines. On their way there and they were in Social Hill Ark,Calvin died. His Wife,then Eliz Berkley,and some of the simsons stayed in the area. Some may hae gone with louis to King Ark or joined him later. Some of the Simpsons may still live in those areas,though I havent tried to make contact yet.
