| Notes |
- Simon King - Simon was born in Nipissing, August 15, 1918, the youngest son of Anna (Perry) and William King. While logging in Port Loring he met Isabel Lambkins. The two were soon married and they settled their home near Nipissing. Over the years Simon worked in the logging camps for Odorizzis, Ellesmeres, Stephens and Duff Moore. After the breakdown of Simon's first marriage he married Evelyn Hummel. Together they ran a mink farm and Simon kept a small stable for work horses that he hired out. Through the years Simon became a trucker as he transported cattle, milk and gravel. He also handled a mail run, and trucked logs and pulp wood. Eventually the trucking took prominence and Simon bought his own rig. He served as a broker for such companies as Caustic, Kingsway, Motorway and Nickel City but over the 25 years he operated his truck he kept returning to Kingsway. His trucking was done mostly in Ontario. Throughout his life Simon liked to invest his money, and did so in various endeavours such as home construction, real estate and the stock market. He like to play cards and enjoyed his membership in the Golden Sunshine Club. He especially enjoyed the seniors dances. Simon had his own unique viewpoint on most everything and was free to share it! He was his own boss!
