Kay and Patty, This is a case where I have done a bunch of lines in a family except for my own. Were there two Parrott D. Waters? Or did he just move around. By 1848 Abraham Simmons died leaving his widow, Martha (Patsy) Sutton Simmons and several children. His land was right on the Lenoir/Jones Co line on SW Creek adj to Jesse Jackson, John Tilghmann and Parrott D. Waters and wife. Noticed that Parrott md 2nd Susan Jackson - assume she was the daughter of Jesse? Patsy remarried John W. Heath and there is a Marriage Contract in Jones Co for the two of them which names all her children and gives the above neighbors of her inherited Simmons land. Patsy and John Heath had at least one child - Nancy born in 1850. Have not checked the later census records or Jones Co records Her Simmons children were and ca birth according to the 1850 Jones Census - Simeon bc 1832, Mary A. bc 1835, John W. b 1834 according to information I have seen but the census is different, Elizabeth S. bc 1838, Lemuel bc 1840, Sarah (mine) b Dec 1845. Neither Penelope or Ann were on the CEnsus and don't know what happened to them or their ages. I have seen information that the daughter Elizabeth S. married a Waters - first name not known - and since Parrott lived next door, wondered if she married one of his children. My Sarah Simmons married Richard Barwick who died young and she remarried a D. R. Waters - I think that was his name - and had issue. Not been able to tie all this down, but Sallie is buried at Maplewood. Her Death Certificate and the stone date is slightly off. Started to date a friend in high school and after two dates, mother told me I could not date him - we were too closely related - but she was always rather vague. I thought she was talking about on his father's side but she was talking about his mother's side. Seems his mother was the grandaughter of Sally Simmons Barwick Waters by her 2nd husband. Sally was my mother's g grandmother. Martha
