    Notes:

    From Biog of his grandson Dr. William Simpson, Lacombe Alberta

    The paternal grandfather, William Simpson, was born in the north of Ireland and located in Ontario at an early day, making the trip across the ocean in an old sailing vessel, and coming to Ontario by way of the St. Lawrence and Ottawa rivers. He was active in the building of the Rideau canal locks at Ottawa. When he came to Canada the present prosperous community of Ottawa consisted of but a few log houses, known as Bytown. He was a true pioneer of the country and he homesteaded land which was nothing but woods. To him fell the laborious task of clearing it and in due time he had one of the finest farms in the district, and resided thereon until his demise.
