I begin with my first Simmons Relative "Proven Records" who was Garrett Simmons. Garrett was born in NC in 1801. Since I have not been able to prove his parents I cannot say when he came to TN.

He married in Franklin TN in 1823 Susan Wade. Susan was also born in NC and was also born in 1801, to Obediah and Abigale Wade.

The Obediah was a soldier on the NC Line during the Rev. War. He lived near the Nelson Creek and Triune area of Williamson County.
