Charles S. Simpson

Simpson was born in Miami County, Ohio in 1856, the son of David W. and Fannie (Martin) Simpson. He was educated in the local public schools of Troy, Ohio and when he finished his education he was involved in the nursery business and agriculture. He came to Scott County, Iowa in 1894. That same year he married Amelia Gross of LeClaire, Iowa. They had two children, one of whom died young. Charles was one of the organizers of the LeClaire Savings Bank in 1901 and was elected its president.[2] For eleven of the fifteen years he lived in LeClaire he served as an alderman.

He built this Georgian Revival home in Davenport in 1910. However, he maintained his position as the bank president in LeClaire after the move.[2]
