I found a copy of Billie Simmons' death certificate - he died on 24 Dec. 1919, of Artero Sclerosis. It states that he was about 58 years of age. It does not give any info on his parents, but it does says that he was living at the County Farm, which was where the poor folks at that time lived. He was buried in the Hickman City Cemetery in Hickman, Fulton Co., Ky. The undertaker was Barrett and Ledford, which no longer exists.

Hope this helps
