Andrew J. SIMS
NOTE: John SIMS is the first in the lineage to move west, for reasons not
now known. He marries Appie MCGOUGH, a widow with a daughter, and they lived near
Woodville. Of their children, Albert and Alfred, and Appless and Andrew, were twins. John
SIMS died shortly after the birth of the second set of twins. He is buried in an unmarked
grave, long lost, in one of his pastures. Appie remarried a third time, to James RUSSELL,
from Georgia, a man three years younger than she. They had one child, James RUSSELL Jr.
Appie is buried in a small burial site outside Woodville (exact location unkown at this
time). Her gravestone was inscribed: "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord".
Appie's parents, Lewis and Jane (LAWSON) FOSTER had six other children: Lewis T., Polly
(called Mary), Sarah, Nancy, James and Virginia Ann.
Albert H. SIMS would quit school and leave home in 1862 to join the 13th
Texas Regiment in Arkansas, on their way to battles of the Civil War. He would not live
through the winter in Arkansas and died on 19 Feb 1863, in a Little Rock hospital. His
twin brother, Alfred, "crazed with grief ... resolved to go to that seeming far off
land Virginia to fight the battle of my country." His memoirs, written and first
published in the Jasper News-Boy in 1911 as "Recollections of
the Civil War," give a compelling account of his travels and travails, including
a description of events at Gettysburg.
The twins' older brother, Thomas Randolph SIMS, also fought in the Civil
War and was held a prisoner of war before being released in a prisoner exchange. The two
brothers' paths would later cross, as is recounted in Alfred's "Recollections."

Expedition against East Florida in support of Mad Anthony Wayne in his raid on Florida,
1778, Five pounds and five shillings." He also served under Colonel James McNeil, who
gave a certificate dated 7 Apr 1784, granting William SIMS property in Washington County,
