Benjamin Franklin Simpson

Wow. I never expected to start such a huge discussion. The correct lineage for him are the postings that show him born in Kentucky and his wife Millie D. Covington. We have not had any indication at this point that she and her family moved to Texas for the duration of the war. Will let you know if I find out different. Their son Harvey Milton(my gr-gr-grandfather) settled in Ottawa County, Oklahoma.
A big Thank You to John Russell for his posting. I had heard that he may have traded in horses and this seems to answer my question. Maybe further digging will find out more info.
My husband and I traveled to Dayton and photographed Benjamin's headstone this past summer and then his wife's in Bates county if anyone is interested. Thanks again for everyones interest.
