In researching the family, I of not, across the name Burleen, and I suspect that it might have actually been Berlin, which German speakers would have pronounced more like Bear-lean. Death: 20 JUN 1934 in Windsor, Henry County, Missouri Note: He was buried at Hickory Point Cemetery. Apparently, he committed suicide by shooting himself, according to his death certificate. Census: 1880 Sullivan County, Missouri Isaac is listed in Clay Twp, 4 June 1880, page 218. He said he was age 28, born PA, his father born NJ and his mother IN. Compare with listings for Russell Simmons. In 1880, Mary A was age 26, born NY, her father born KY and her mother OH. Children were given as Lavinia age 11, John T age 7, Sarah W 5, Edward B 2, James S 9/12, b Sep. From Lillie Shipp's information, there may have been two other girls. Census: 1900 Pettis County, Missouri He is in E. D. 96, Sheet 3. He lived in Dresden Village, and the census was taken 14 June 1900. Isaac Simmons born Nov. 1851, said he had been married 31 years. He was born in Ohio, his father in Pennsylvania and his mother in Ohio. He was a farmer living on a rented farm, and he and his wife could read and write. His wife, Mary A., was born Dec. 1853, and was the mother of eight children with five living. Still at home were John D., Edward B., and Levi I. Census: 1910 Johnson County, Missouri Johnson County is adjacent to Pettis County. I found this on page 170, E.D. 115, sheet five. They were in Post Oak Township, listed on the 20 and 21 April 1910. Isaac was 58, born Ohio, and both of his parents born Ohio. Mary was 56 born Missouri. Isaac was of farmer, owned of mortgage farm. Both he and his wife could read and write. Mary said she had eight children, four of them living. They had been married forty years. Their son, John, lived next door to them. Note that I did not find Isaac in 1920 in Windsor Township in 1920. Event: Living 7 NOV 1891 Pettis County, Missouri I imagine they had lived in Pettis County for a while, before moving to the Windsor area. At this time, Isaac gave consent to the marriage of his daughter, Sarah.
