Message Board Post:
I have unidentified photos from a photo album belonging to:
Matilda Maude Haughton Simmons b. 1844 England
She married James M. Simmons b. 1834 Kentucky
They settled in Lawrence Co. Missouri and had the following children:
William M. Simmons b. 1864 married Myra Alice Carver b. 1866
Sarah Gertrude Simmons b. 1867 married James Marion Mathews b. 1858
Mary Alice Simmons b. 1869 married Henry Carlin Means b. 1860
Minnie Ellen Simmons b. 1871 married John Thomas Means b. 1864
Elizabeth V. Simmons b. 1875
James B. Simmons b. 1880 married Maude Swearingen b. 1887
This album was given to her by her son James at Christmas 1899.
Matilda died in 1916 so the photos would have been placed in the album between 1899 and
1916.
There are old tintypes as well as paper photos.
If interested in viewing contact pages of these photos for possible identification, please
notify me.
