Hi Johnny, I don't see any marriage for an Ann but that may have been a middle name. But if they married around 1890-- Ann would be born in time frame of 65 to 75. there are Simpson Families living in that area they are Desc of Thomas Simpson I am working up a file on the Simpson Family as they relate to the families of Brown and Cox. I know that Thomas Simpson and Steven Simpson were married to sisters Cythina Brown and Lucy Brown in 1840's in Gallatin co Il. They also had other brothers who mar and lived in Saline Co. I have ck on all there desc. I see what I can find.
