Simon Fraser (1776 - 1862)
Born in Vermont of Loyalist Scottish-Catholic parents,
Simon Fraser immigrated to Canada in 1784 with his
widowed mother. Fraser was a relative of Simon McTavish,
the principal director of the North West Company, and entered
that company as an apprentice at the age of 16. A clerk in
Athabasca in 1799, he became one of the associates of the North
West Company in 1801.
