This is a genealogical history of the Simpson family stretching over
both time and space from Scotland on to America. It begins with a
discussion of the origin of the name and its beginnings in Scotland,
but then quickly moves to an account of the migration to northern
Ireland and the family's immigration to America, initially to
Pennsylvania. The book also is concerned with the interactions of the
Simpsons and the Frasers, and most importantly, the history of Jonathan
Simpson of County Derry in Ireland. It includes an account of Simpson
families from Scotland and Ireland who settled in New England and in
New Jersey, and in detail in Pennsylvania, where the concentration of
Simpsons is investigated county by county. It then continues with a
study of the Simpsons who moved to Ohio, particularly to Jefferson,
Harrison, and Richland Counties, and it concludes with an account of
related families, including Hout, Hale, Stringer, Potts, Thesuver, and
Dawson.
