Attached is the only picture I have of my grandmother and grandfather. On the left is Evelyn Bozeman Simpson, daughter of Peter Gaddis Ambrose Bozeman and Savannah Victoria Smith. In the middle is Thomas Franklyn Simpson, Evelyn's husband and one the right is Daisy Bozeman, Evelyn's sister.
Peter is the son of John Hewett and Charlotte Bennett Bozeman mention on page 120 of the Sketches book and of course, John is the son of Etheldred and Asia Ward Bozeman. Peter was born July 30, 1863 according to the book and died March 19, 1944 according to cem. records (not tombstones). He is buried at Lynnhurst Cemetery in Knoxville, TN in the Paul family Plot. Family records indicate he worked for Post & Co. in Knoxville, TN. He was a coachbuilder. The only other names of siblings mention in what I have are of "Johnny and Willie". I presume this to be John E. Bozeman b Nov 20, 1860 and Willie b March 7, 1869.
Savannah Victoria Smith is the daughter of William Greenberry Smith and Margaret Virginia Miller. She was born July 22, 1874 in Greenville, TN and died August 7, 1939, also buried in the Paul Plot in Lynnhurst.
Evelyn was born February 4, 1896 and died March 15, 1969. She is buried in Lynnhurst in the Paul Plot.
Thomas Franklyn "Frank" Simpson was born Oct 24, 1876 and died Sept 21, 1932 in Knoxville and is the son of John Baxter and Margaret "Maggie"
Atkinson Simpson. He is buried at Sherwood Burial Park in Salem VA. This is also according to Cem and funeral home records. Evelyn and Frank's children are William Alvin Simpson b 1919 d ca 1970's. and my dad Landon Eryl Simpson-still living. Daisy Victoria Bozeman was first married to an Anderson and then to a King. I do not have her birth date but she died Feb. 20, 1941. She is also buried in Lynnhurst Cem in the Paul plot in Knoxville TN.
Other Bozemans buried in this plot are as follows and I list relationship to Evelyn beside their info:
Mrs. James E. Byrd d Sept 21, 1943 - Niece
Landon H. Bozeman d Aug 16, 1951 - brother
Arthur T. Paul d June 21, 1961 - brother in law
William P. Bozeman d Aug 12, 1968 - brother
Bonnie Mae Cash Paul d Dec 7, 1971 - sister (Married to a Homer Cash first and
then to Arthur T. Paul)
John R. Bozeman d Feb 13, 1990 - brother
I have not done an extensive study into my Bozeman's; some census records and the Cem and Funeral Home records. There are many Bozeman descendants that live in Knoxville and on occasion I have met them, but do not really know them. Sad isn't it? Maybe it is time for me to work more on my Bozeman line instead of my Simpson line.
I have some other pictures of Daisy Bozeman and one of a daughter of Bonnie Mae Bozeman, also named Bonnie. I send this to you to post to the Bozeman web site you are maintaining in hopes that some other Bozeman from this line sees it.
Hope this may help someone.
