Nancy, I don't know anything about him. I did find where someone posted a photo of his wife Elizabeth's marker from Indiana on Find-A-Grave last year. Here is a link to it. You might email the lady and see if she knows anything. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSvpid=46486104&GRid=19112215 George S.

I know nothing about his death. Have tried to locate a grave with no success. I have wondered if he might have abandoned his wife and family. (wife: Elizabeth Callaway He was in debt and 'very poor' according to copies of data I have.) Ephraim may have been born in NC. He was born 17 Oct. 1782. Living in Greenbrier (Monroe) co. (W)VA in 1799. Married Elizabeth Callaway in Monroe co. 1802. You seem to be knowledgeable about Cabell Co. so I wondered if you might have knowledge of Ephraim Simmons. His father was Joel Simmons.
