Simon worked on the interior stories of Daring Mystery 1 so he had to have been hired pre Oct 1939. He may have been hired by Goodman shortly after Marvel 1 was published. 

Kirby’s first work for Timely was Red Raven 1 (real time release May 1940). Simon recruited him over from FOX for a hefty pay raise so I imagine Kirby was hired early 1940. 

S&K left Timely for DC after the first 10 issues of Cap so that would have been roughly early 1942.

Try e-mailing Roy Thomas at roydann@ntinet.com (His email is public on TwoMorrows site).  I sent him a question about Charles Sultan and he answered.  He may know specifics on your questions.

I believe so, as I just read that last month.   If only I remembered which pile of books it's in...
