Notes

"Nathaniel Stone Simpkins.\emdash Nathaniel S. Simpkins was born in Brewster, Mass., January 8, 1796. He was the eldest son of Rev.. John and Olive (Stone) Simpkins, and grandson of Dea. John Simpkins, of Boston. The Rev. John Simpkins graduated from Harvard College in 1786, married a daughter of Rev. Nathaniel Stone, the minister of the first church at Harwich. His son Nathaniel, received an Academical education, and was trained to business pursuits. He engaged for a few years, in the book-selling and stationery business in Boston, and established the "County Book Store " in Barnstable, for many years the only one of the kind in the County.
Mr. Simpkins was the founder of two Cape newspapers. In 1835 he established the Barnstable Journal, which he soon placed on a paying basis, and it continued to succeed during the three or four years of his management. In 1836, in connection with four others, he established the Yarmouth Register, being one of its proprietors and its business manager and publisher, for about two years. Nearly forty-five years ago he was engaged in fitting out and managing fishing vessels at Yarmouth Port. He purchased the wharf, store and landing place on the premises, which something like two centuries before had been owned by Capt. Nicholas Simpkins, who in his day was in command of the Castle in Boston harbor, who for a few years was a resident here, and who sold to Andrew Hallet, in 1645, his lands in this town. Mr. Simpkins was a direct descendant of Nicholas, but at the time of coming into possession of this property was not aware that it had ever been held by his ancestor.
Mr. Simpkins was a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, in the years 1836, 1850 and 1851. He was one of the earliest advocates and promoters of the Hoosac Tunnel enterprise, and voted for the first bill passed in favor of that project. He was for many years a director of the First National Bank of Yarmouth, and also a director of the Cape Cod Railroad until it was merged with the Old Colony Railroad. In these positions he proved a prudent, faithful and efficient guardian of the interests confided to his care. In his private dealings he was careful, pains-taking, scrupulous in fulfilling his engagements and kindly in his bearing to those with whom he came in contact.
Mr. Simpkins was one of the first members of the Swedenborgian church of Yarmouth, and was efficient in his aid to the local as well as the general organization. By his union with Eliza Thacher of Yarmouth, five children were born, who arrived at mature age, viz: Charles H., Mary, John, George W., and Nathaniel Stone, jr. John and Nathaniel Stone were prominent and successful business men in New York, both being especially identified in the Calumet and Hecla Mining Copper Company. John died in 1870, and Nathaniel S., jr., in 1883. Of the surviving sons Charles H. Simpkins is engaged in business in San Francisco and was one of the original pioneers of 1849. George W. Simpkins resides in St. Louis and occupies in summer, the old homestead in Yarmouth Port, which belonged to his father."
