• Spouse: Malisse Simmons
• Children: Albertha Simmons, O.T. Simmons, Sedalia Simmons.

Note: According to this census, Albertha stated that she did not have any children, so due to this, I put these children under his first wife, Mollie Lawson, as they were married at the time. Mollie is very difficult to pin down in the records as she was married more than once, and I cannot locate any census records for her under her married names. Under her name Mollie Lawson, I still can not verify records, because I am unaware of this family personally, but I did my best to add all the records that I did find on her. I will try to come back and figure it all out later.
