Here is info that I have collected in my database: Tempe Berggren, researcher -- 1860 Maries Co., Missouri Federal Census, Dry Creek Twp., Bloomgarden P.O., dwelling #404, family #399; Simpson, William, WM, $5000/$1300, age 51 or 57?, farming; Elizabeth, wife, WF, age 47, TN; Barnet, WM, age 24, MO, farmer; MARY, WF, age 22, MO; Lavinia, WF, age 20, MO; Caroline, WF, age 18, MO; Mahala, WF, age 10, MO; Benjamin, WM, age 11, MO; James Nelson, WM, age 13, MO (son of Ira and Sophia Dill Nelson). ------- 1870 U.S. Census - Dry Creek Twp., Maries County, Missouri, p. 392a - 4/47 Elizabeth Simpson, age 55, FW, farm widow, $3000/$350, Indiana?; Elizabeth, 27, FW, MO; Louisa Nelson, age 14, FW, MO: Mary Lee, age 16, FW, MO. ------- 1870 Census, Maries Co., Dry Creek, MO #47 - per Judy Germann Simpson, Elizabeth, age 53, f/w, Farmer & Widow, $3000/$850, born TN Simpson, Elizabeth, age 27, f/w, born MO (Elizabeth Caroline) Nelson, Louisa, age 11, f/w, born MO (Dau of Sophia Dill Nelson & Wm. Simpson) Lee, Mary, age 16, f/w, born MO (Is she a relative?) Mary Lee is the daughter of Mary (Polly) Simpson and Louis/Lewis Lee. I have her birth date as 1854, and believe she married an Abraham Crawford. Mary (Polly) was the daughter of William and Elizabeth Simpson. Louis and Mary Lee and family were among those who moved to Texas. ------- It shows that Louisa married Joseph Dow Miller on April 19, 1883 in TX or MO. Three children are listed as Effie, Annie, and Lillie Mae. Louisa died Dec. 4, 1907 in Rule, Haskell Co., TX. ------- At one time there was a website with a large amount of Simpson data available for research. Hope this helps.
