Simmons. The very numerous connection in Pdn., and Hld., are de- rived from Nicholas, who located 1753, n. the mouth of Brushy Fork, and Leonard, who located about as early on SB, at the Judy bridge. The former connection is the larger, and it is all but impossible to reduce the names to system. The sons of Nicholas were John, George, Leonard, Michael, Mark, and perhaps others. The sons of Leonard were Henry, William, and George.
A grandson of Nicholas was John - b. 1786, D. 1864 - w. Margaret - who came to CB with a grown family, 1825c - C-4 -
