Seeking information on William L. McKINLEY and his wife Nancy, both of Gibson Co., TN, who sold all interest in the estate of William SIMMONS, Sr., deceased, in Bedford Co., TN to James B. SIMMONS (also of Gibson Co.) in 1835. The above information was from the published book on Bedford Co., TN deeds by Tim and Helen Marsh. I believe that the surname SIMMONS was mistaken for LEMMONS, depending on the writing. Sometimes the "S" and "L" look alike. I have sent off a request for a copy of this deed. The WPA index source listed the surname as LEMMONS. The deed stated that Nancy was a daughter of William SIMMONS, Sr. I would like to find more information on the McKINLEY family and if the surname SIMMONS should be LEMMONS. Unable to find a marriage listing for Nancy SIMMONS or LEMMONS to William L. McKINLEY. Nova Lemons lemstar@juno.com
