Re: Simmers surname
Most Simmers in the US are definitely of German origin but there are also some from Scotland according to tinyurl.com/oglo2j7. The Scottish name is a variant of English Summer(s). The name is thought to come from Old French somier 'beast of burden', hence the nickname of a muleteer.
