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.

Biography

Posted 20 May 2015 by BarbaraCarsonJardine

On 24th October 1818, the Richmond Military Settlement Office allocated Concession 8, Lot 27 to John Stewart of Blair Atholl and his family. It is recorded that he had two children under 12 and one child aged between 12 and 17 (presumably John Robertson).

Duncan Campbell, the Town Clerk for Beckwith Township, compiled a census of the household heads and their families on 4th June 1820. John Stewart is recorded as having a wife and a female child with him. An unmarried John Robertson also appears in the census. A similar census carried out two years later shows that John and Helen now had a son, in addition to their daughter. Once again an unmarried John Robertson is listed. The Assessor's List compiled by Richard Finlay in 1841 includes John Stewart (C8, L27). In 1852 a John Stewart, farmer on C8, L29 is given as aged 66 years and having a house built of logs with 7 inhabitants. John died intestate in 1854 and the heirs-at-law filed a quit claim deed in favour of their brother John, the youngest son of John Stewart senior.

Both John and Helen are buried in the Kennedy Cemetery, Beckwith. His stone reads "John Stewart, native of Perthshire Scotland, died January 31st 1854 aged 67 years". His wife's stone reads "In memory of Helen, wife of John Stewart, died September 7th 1872 aged 82 years".



Their daughter, Isabella, married her first cousin, Neil Stewart, whose parents had lived at Balchapel in Borenich, Blair Atholl. The two witnesses were John Scott and James Stewart (Neil's neighbour and uncle).
