Daniel Simmons
Son of John Simmons and Helen (Dunn) Simmons, CT. John was son of John Simmons and Melissa Davis, CT. That John was the son of Nelson Simmons of Rhode Island. My father's siblings were John, Claude, Alice, Ada, Thelma, Jean and Helen. In the 1930's Ada was married as was, I think John and Alice, but I have no names for John and Alice. Ada married Seaborn Bart Jones and move to Florida. I believe my grandfather died early 1930, alone in a hospital/home as grandmother Nellie (Helen) was in Brooklyn, NY with my father, Claude, and Thelma. Her initial title in the 1930's census was "wife" but that was crossed out and "head" written in. Thelma later married Nelson Himes and lived in CT. The family moved to New Rochelle, NY at some point in the 30's or 40's as that's where my father met my mother, Eva May Hinkley. My parents had me, Daralyn, Daniel II and James Michael. Lyn and I were born in New Rochelle, but the boys were born in Miami, FL. We also had a half sister, Norma Ann Hinkley.
I would love to learn more about my grandmother Helen, who I believe came over here in the early 1900's from England. Her father was from Ireland and mother from England, but that's all I know. Would also love to connect with relatives of my uncles and aunts. Any info will be most appreciated.
