This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Oickle Sims Coolen Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DQC.2ACI/304 Message Board Post: Would like to communicate with anyone descending from couple, William OICKLE & Lillian SIMS, who are believed to have had children, E. Jean (about 1923-1995), Earl, Douglas, Gerald & Connie. I have been trying to locate descendants of my Great-Grandfather's siblings. My GGF, William A. Sims of Liverpool, Nova Scotia was brother to Lillian's GrandFather, John Edward Sims (1852-1907). Other known descendants of John Edward Sims are Lillian's siblings, John Earl Sims, Clare Sims & Vivian "Susie" Sims (1908-1996) of Liverpool, NS- who married George Taylor. They are all children of John Edward's son James Sims-b.1882. John Edward and my GF, William Sims are believed to be children of Charles Sims-b, 1815 & Maria Eliza Coolen. Would be interested sharing family history with descendants of any from these lines. - Thank You, Allan Griffith, Bloomington, IL, USA - Email as of 2004: magrif@verizon.net
