6184 From "A Kerfoot History" is the following, probably from the "Christian Guardian":
William Kerfoot was born in Coolcullen, County of Kilkenny, Ireland May 14, 1816, came to Canada in the year 1819, and settled in the Township of Beckwith, Ontario. He was converted to God in the summer of 1832, under the ministry of Rev J H Huston. The work was genuine, as his after life showed. He immediately united with the Wesleyan Methodist Church and continued a member to his death (fifty-one years) and he was a class leader in the church of his choice eighteen years. He was married to Miss Mary Brownlee of Goulbourn on May 6, 1841, and settled in the Township of Montague near Merrickville. His wife died January 16, 1869, and left him with twelve children to mourn her loss. In the spring of 1870 he moved to Warwick with eight children, the other four being settled. The twelve children are still living and all members of the Church. A few months before his death he sold his farm and built for himself a comfortable house in the Village of Watford where he intended to finish his days in retirement, but he passed away to his rest after a few weeks' illness on the 3rd of April, 1883 and was interred on the 5th, in the Warwick Cemetery. A memorial sermon was preached in the Church in which he was wont to worship by Rev T S Howard to a vast concourse of sympathetic friends. He was one of the pillars of the Church, and died as he lived, peaceful and happy.

6191 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.

Mr Joseph Wilson, of Carleton Place, died on Friday evening last, after a few weeks' illness from an affection of the liver. Few men were better known throughout this section than deceased ? he having been prominently before the public as proprietor of the "Wilson House" for ten or twelve years ? and his geniality and goodheartedness won him many warm friends. Years ago he possessed an iron constitution, but, being his own worst friend, he took little care of it, for some time past had been a physical wreck. He was but 44 years and 10 months old at the time of his death. The funeral, which took place to the 8th line cemetery on Monday, was largely attended, and as the cortege moved along expression of deep sympathy and regret were heard on all sides. A widow and three children are left.
