Hi Group: I am a fortunate person to still have my Grandparents alive in their late 80's and still having good memories. I was able to get additional information from them on my Simmons line. George Ova Simmons "Ovie" was born 1885 in Paducah KY. He married Arda_______. Their children Lloyd and Duard were born in Memphis approx. 1910-1920. He worked on the Pulman cars on the trains in Memphis and that area. Cora May Simmons, b. 1886 in Paducah, married Zeek, McNabb, then Oscar T. Laws. Oscar also worked the trains in the Memphis area, but I find him in Louisville in 1932. He was living as a neighbor to Cora's father, Cora's older brother Esba was working the trains in the Louisville area. There were ten children in this family. I am only giving information that is new to me and involves the Memphis area. Here are the youngest two daughters. Arah Leoma Simmons, b. 1900 Paducah, KY. 1938 finds her getting her SS card. She is living on Wellington in Memphis. She is working at Oliver-Finnie Co. located at Vance & Front in Memphis. She died in 1988 in Memphis. She married very briefly, but I don't have the man's name. Erman Ethel Simmons, b. 1903 in Paducah, KY. Married a man named BETHEL who was a plumber in Memphis. She died in 1969 in Memphis. I'm looking for marriage records, birth certificates, death certificates, and places of burial. I'm also hoping to find living relatives who are researching this line. These are siblings of my GGM Florence Lillian Simmons Holliday, who lived until I was 19 years old and left lots of wonderful memories. Donna
