Charles E. Simmons, M.D., was present at the Founding of the Theosophical Society in September, 1875. Josephine Ransom said of him that he was "a well-known New York physician," but that otherwise "no information has been discovered."[1]

Modern genealogical research has uncovered listings for him as a physician at 742 Lexington Avenue, New York in several city directories and business directories.[2]
