Picture
Comments when I asked on Pictorial History of Pugwash Facebook Site for identification of this man: I believe this photo was taken in the 1950s and that visitors who were attending Thinkers Lodge Conference visited his shop.  Photo is archived at Western Reserve Historical Society in Cleveland, Ohio.

Mae Bowser Walter Simmonds at the blacksmith shop on Prince Albert Street ,1950 /1960 

Ron Trenholm for sure , I boarded at their home when I was 11 and 12 yrs old 
Eleanor Cochrane I believe he is Walter Simmons Pugwash Blacksmith my Dad used to take our horses to him for shoeing. also I believe he repaired wagon wheels Not certain. Long time ago ha! EJC Eleanor Carter Cochrane.

Edith Mcfadden Croft May I inject an amusing incident to the Mr. Simmons who was the blacksmith. For you who remember John and Campbell Fraser who lived in the old Weatherby house beside the (then) railway track. Campbell told a funny story, he took a horse to be shoed to the Simmons shop. When the animal was attended to, the tradesman said to Campbell "that's twenty five cents and how's your Mother?" Okay, I don't expect the younger folk to understand that humor but people laughed at that story for such a long time. Good jokes last and last.
