Biographical history
Peter R. Simpson currently resides in Brentwood Bay, BC. His mother Agnes (Westinghouse) Simpson was the one who wrote on the back of the photos and presumably took the photos. Pictured in a photo is her sister Violet Westinghouse and her brother George Thomas ‘Tom’ Westinghouse. The family had a place in Nassau, Bahamas, and visited in the winter as Peter’s grandfather did not like the winters here. They used to live in a house on Mt Newton Road in North Saanich. Agnes died in 2006 in Victoria.
