Thank you Peter,
I'm sure that this William SIMMS will be connected in some way.

Can the census at Middlewich be accessed?

Thanks,
Genie

Thank you so much. I have not been on this site for quite a while, so I did not see your post.
I had found Sarah SIMMS birth record on Family search but not James or John. After sending away for Sarah's birth cert, it said the mother Elizabeth's maiden name was BOSWELL. On 1841 or 1851 census James SIMMs was with SIMMS grandparents and on another census he was with BOSWELL grandparents. Both grandparents were canal boatpeople. Elizabeth BOSWELL was born at Talke. I still haven't found her marriage to William SIMMS but I suppose they could have married anywhere their canal boat travelled. Where would I look for census records for Newton. Apparently a son David was born there after Sarah?

To anyone interested in HAROLD & LEVI SIMMS of Odd Road, Cheshire., later of Alsager and Stoke-on Trent., I can help with the family history.   I am the grandson of HAROLD SIMMS and have traced the family back as far as records permit.

I am new to this site and therefore do not know how to publish my findings.   I have been researching the Simms and other connected families for more than 50 years.   SIMMS was my mother's name.

Regards

Hi,
I've just found out that I am related to some of the Simms mentioned on this thread.
My 2x great grandmother is the Ann Simms on the 1841 Odd Rode census, parents Thomas and Sarah. I think that Thomas married Sarah Hancock in 1824 and that Thomas is the son of John and Sarah Simms from Sandbach b.c. 1801.
If anyone has more info on this branch of the Simms I would be interested in discovering more.
Thanks,
jubee
