William Knox Simms (1830 – 25 December 1897) was a brewer, businessman and politician in the early days of South Australia. ==History== Knox migrated to South Australia from England in, arriving in December 1845. In 1851 as partner with John Hayter in the firm of Simms & Hayter, he founded the Pirie Street Brewery, then in 1856 with the firm of W. K. Simms & Co., ran the Halifax Street Brewery, and in 1861 took over the famous West-End Brewery, off Hindley Street near West Terrace, and built it up into a highly profitable business; from 1866 to 1879 with partner Edgar Chapman, and for a time operated the "Adelaide Brewery" in Waverley, Sydney〔G. L. Fischer, ('Chapman, Edgar (1831–1886)' ), ''Australian Dictionary of Biography'', National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, published in hardcopy 1969, accessed online 8 March 2014〕 with Hampton Carroll Gleeson. In 1888 the West End Brewery was taken over by the South Australian Brewing and Malting Company. That business later amalgamated with Edwin Smith's Kent Town Brewing Company, whose malt towers remain a prominent East Adelaide landmark. Simms remained a director of the company until his death, but his duties were not onerous, and his dividends immense.
