In 1835 Jesse BURR and his wife Mary sold their land in Bedford Co., TN to W. A. SIMMONS, all of Bedford Co., TN. The land formerly belonged to William SIMMONS, dec'd. I suspect the surname SIMMONS should be LEMMONS. I have sent off for a copy of this deed record to see the actual handwriting. I would like to know if Mary BURR was formerly a LEMMONS (or SIMMONS) and a daughter of William SIMMONS / LEMMONS. Is anyone descended from this family? Nova Lemons lemstar@juno.com
