Surnames: SIMMONS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Tk.2ADE/2309 Message Board Post: Franklin SIMMONS moved with his parents (who are they?) in 1862 to Postville area from IL. Franklin became a member of the Methodist Episcopal church in 1871. He married Josephine ROSE between 1886-88. Would like to know about any SIMMONS in the area. Would there be any church records of the SIMMONS family? They may have lived near the ROSE family.
