John Glenton Simpson
Born Aug 4, 1864 in Kentucky and died Apr 25, 1935 in Patton, Cambria County, PA

Son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Shevels) Simpson

Husband of Ann Jane "Jennie" (Elms) Simpson married on March 6, 1902 in Patton, Cambria County, PA.
His marriage certificate states he was 24 years old which would indicate he was born in 1878.
His death certificate states he was born in 1864.
In the 1930 Census, he stated he was 32 when he married Jennie, which would indicate he was born in 1870.
So there is a discrepancy on his birth year. All documents are correctly associated with this person. Not sure what to think on which is his true birth year. It's interesting and a mystery.

John and Jennie's children:
1) John George Simpson b) July 17, 1903; Oct 1978; married Florence Marie Beck in 1932
2) Ellen Romayne Simpson; b) Feb 13, 1906; May 19, 1987; married Robert Frycklund on Feb 22, 1928 in Ebensburg, PA. He was the son of Axel and Clara Frycklund.
3) Mary E. Simpson; b) July 29, 1908; d) May 3, 1922 age 13
4) Lillian Grace Simpson; b) Jan 3, 1911; d) Apr 1986; married George D. Dobransky on Oct 1, 1930
5) Glenton Simpson; b) Oct 15, 1918; d) Apr 27, 1936 age 17
6) William Joseph Simpson; b) May 26, 1921; d) Jun 4, 1997; married LaRue Maude Booher on Feb 21, 1947. They lived in Colorado Springs, CO..
