John:
I read your posting here and have updated our records on Private Allen G. SIMMONS, Co. B, 47th Alabama Infantry. Would like to exchange information with you via e-mail {society@fortdelaware.org} and learn more about him.
I have a close-up image of Allen's name on the Finns Point Confederate monument.
