I am trying to find the father and the mother's maiden name of the following 2 boys:
Enoch Lenox Simmons / Seamands was born Feb. 18, 1824 in Cabell Co., Va., where he lived until he moved in the 1840's to neighboring Lawrence Co., Ohio.There he married Ruth Brammer in 1845. His grandparents, Elijah Grant Simmons and wife Lucy (Sandridge) were living with him and his family for the 1850 census.About 1855, Enoch and family moved to Jackson Co., Iowa, with his mom, to be with his brother. Enoch died in Iowa in 1892.
Thaddeus Constantine Simmons / Seamands was born March 8, 1826 in Cabell Co., where he lived until 1842.He then lived in Lawrence Co., Ohio until 1847, then moved to Jackson Co., Iowa. Thaddeus married Caroline Bullock there in 1849. Thaddeus died sometime after the 1910 census, but I can not find a death record for him. Would you happen to have one? I figured that his death certificate may name his father???
Both these boys have biographies in the History of Jackson Co., Iowa book and their mother's name was Mary. I would like to find Mary's maiden name and which son of Elijah Grant Simmons and Lucy Sandridge they belong to.Mary "Semons" married a second time to a distant relative of mine, John Mann, in Lawrence Co., Ohio in 1843. They moved to Jackson Co., Iowa about 1855.I don't have a death date for either Mary B. Mann (just know it is after the 1880 census) or John Mann, which is sometime between the 1870-1880.
Also looking for a death date for Lucy (Sandridge) Simmons, which I am assuming died in Lawrence Co., Ohio between 1850 and 1860?I have Elijah Grant Simmons' death date from his obit.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
