He died on 7 Jul 1958 in , Bell County, Kentucky. He was buried in Aunt Emily Cem, Bell County, Kentucky.

Barnett Hoskins was born Feb. 1, 1871 (place unknown). He was a man of true grit, who made a living hauling stones, lumber and water with his wagon and team of mules, and often hauled salt from the Livingston - Mt. Vernon area to Bell County, a two-week trip for a distance of approximately 120 miles one way, to many families in the county.
Education wasn't a top priority in those days but rather learning how to make a living with what nature provided. That required brawn and thinking ahead from one season to another, despite the difficulties, illnesses, or weather in that eastern, mountainous area called Bell County, KY.
Barnett Hoskins was Barnett Simpson's grandfather and he is honored to bear the first name, Barnett, after him. He was the son of Mary Arnett and Bratcher H. Hoskins.
In the last years of the 19th century, they selected a home, a log cabin, the only form of building on the frontier, and raised a family in the cabin located in the Black Snake area near Cubbage, KY in a valley between two hills.
Barnett was of the Primitive Baptist faith that still flourishes in Bell County and throughout the country. He was loved by his descendants, trusted by most who knew him, and a true pioneer who helped settle Bell County.
Barnett and Katherine had eight daughters and one son; 48 grandchildren, 131 great-grandchildren, 123 great -great-grandchildren and 21 great-great-great-grandchildren.
Twenty-three grandsons served in defense of this country, and one is presently a missionary in South Africa.
The children of this union are: Josie Hoskins, married Than Thompson, no children; Mossie Hoskins, married John H. Miracle, four children; Bessie Hoskins, married R. A . Cheek, 14 children; Sudie Hoskins, married Ben F. Simpson, seven children; America Hoskins, married Rufus Cheek, one chld; Ada Hoskins, married Rich Ervin, 10 children; Oppie Hoskins, married Smith Stumbo, one child and Bratcher Hoskins, married Linda Jane Cox, six children.
The seven children of the family of Ben and Sudie Hoskins Simpson, walked in the footsteps of their parents, with persistent courage and fortitude, despite the daily life of hardships. But with a large family at home, there was also love and understanding.
The children of this union are: Paul Eugene Simpson, married Janet Bishop, two children; Barnett A. Simpson, married Marie Wilder, four children; Cleston Simpson, married Marie Hobbs, two children; Nathaniel Simpson, married Phyllis Terrell, three children; Rowland Simpson, never married, died 1951; Anna Lee Simpson, married Leonard Stark, no children and Wanda Faye Simpson, married Jim Simpson (no relation) one child.

To this union were born 13 children. He joined the Primitive Baptist Church in 1911 and remained a faithful member until death.
