Thomas Simmerman, who was born in Virginia in 1793. Thomas Simmerman came from Virginia to Missouri in the early part of the nineteenth century and settled on a tract of land comprising 124 acres located in Columbus township.
He prospered well in the new Western home and became widely known in Johnson county as an enterprising and successful farmer and stockman. Mr. Simmerman died in February, 1874 and his son, W. T.( William Thomas), born in Missouri, remained on the home place for several years continuing the work his father had begun.[1]
