General Notes: Husband - J. W. Simpson


After his marriage, he located on a part of his father's first purchase, and from the wild land developed a good farm, making it his home for fourteen years. In 1869 he sold, and purchased the James Fitzgerald farm, a partially improved tract of 129 acres, on which he erected a large barn and good two-story residence, besides making other necessary improvements. He cleared a large portion of his land, planted a fine orchard, and had one of the best and most highly cultivated farms of the locality.
In his political affiliations Mr. Simpson was a Democrat, and he filled the offices of supervisor and school director. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, to which his wife also belonged.
