- Biography
- The King family immigrated to Canada from Prague. Charles King and his family landed at New York in 1857 and moved to Whitby in 1863. Charles and his older brother, Joseph, bought out the former proprietor of the tannery and founded the King Brothers' Tannery at Whitby in 1863, which was located at 44 Colborne Street in 1863. In 1878, they opened a Toronto branch.
- Charles King (1837–1915) and his wife, Henrietta, had eight surviving children. He was active in local politics, holding almost every position on the county council. Charles occupied the position of reeve of Whitby in 1880 and deputy reeve from 1891 to 1893. He sat in the county council and later became warden of Ontario County.
- Charles King was a member of the Whitby Board of Education for sixteen years, serving several terms as chairman. He died at Toronto on 22 February 1915.

- Administrative History
- Alexander Elliott "Alex" Mosoff (1904-1998) was born in Szydlowiec, Poland on 12 April 1904. Mosoff came to Toronto in 1906. It was there that he married his wife, Fay Layefsky, on 23 March 1924; the two would stay married for 74 years, during which time they had two children: a son, Harold, and a daughter, Gloria.
- Mosoff worked for a wholesale groceteria for a time before joining Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in 1924, eventually becoming a manager at a time when it was unusual for a Jewish person to go beyond the position of salesperson. In all, Mosoff spent 44 years at MetLife, retiring in 1968.
- Mosoff passed away on 27 April 1998. He was 94 years old.
