I didn't find a Thomas, though that doesn't mean there isn't one. Good luck, and thank you for reaching out! I, too, have a brick wall, but in New York and not of Simonds.nattrnuzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12142457721843210913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-88460863598694715352022-04-17T17:42:56.716-07:002022-04-17T17:42:56.716-07:00I realize this is an old post an am hoping someone...I realize this is an old post an am hoping someone still monitors it. I am trying to find the parents of Thomas E. Simonds born abt 1806. His mother immigrated from England and he married Elizabeth Harris of North Carolina. They later moved to Roane County W.V. and are on the 1880 census there.<br />Any assistance would be much appreciated, I have been stuck on this since about 2012.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14761121326293071559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-4924381873060321592015-05-07T04:18:32.880-07:002015-05-07T04:18:32.880-07:00Hello Mary, Joseph Simonds (1652 - 1733) is the s...Hello Mary, Joseph Simonds (1652 - 1733) is the son of William Simonds and Judith Phippen.

A 6th cousin who can trace a direct male line from himself to william has done familytreedna testing and found out that the simonds male line is of Scaninivan deep ancestry. Part of the I-Hapolgroup. some time between the year 400 to the year 1000 the line must have been part of ethier Vikings, Dannish settlers or Ango Saxon's and ended up in england from Nordic lands somehow.

My line is William b. 1612, Lt. Benjamin, Joseph, Samuel, Samuel, Ashnah, Sylvester R., Clarence S., Nellie Louise (my grandmother). Until 1924, family members resided in Connecticut after migrating there from Massachusetts. In 1924, Nellie and her husband Frank Miller Augur loaded their six children into an open touring car for a transcontinental move to the Pacific NW -- a trek of great adventure. About a hundred descendants still reside in PNW. <br /><br />I am going to have to do some research on Burlington! A Simonds school there?

So your title caught my eye. I continue to be impressed by your massive compilation of genealogy records. I just got a huge bundle of information from a second cousin, relatives in the hundreds, but even when I finish recording it (years from now!) it won't approach all your knowledge. I have to say, Kudos!Mariann Reganhttp://mariannregan.authorsxpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
