Simon was the 2nd of 5 known children of John French (1770-1845) and Comfort Moore (1770-1834)

His siblings were:
-Martha French (1794-1811)
-Coffin Moore French (1799-1881) m. 1825 Dolly Pillsbury
-Lucinda French (1803-1889) m. 1824 Frederick Fitts
-Evelina French (1805-1848) m. 1824 Samuel Murray

Simon married Ann B. Evans (ca1801-unk) on 13 Feb 1834 in New Hampshire.

Simon and Ann had one known child together, Mary Ann French (ca1838-1899), m. (1st) George W. Seavey on 23 Oct 1857, m. (2nd) Dewitt Dawkins on 25 Sep 1883.

Simon appears in the 1850 census of Candia, Rockingham, New Hampshire with his wife and daughter. Also living with them at that time were Horace Evans and Hiram Evans, both aged 9. Horace and Hiram are almost certainly related to Ann in some way, but I am unclear how - they are too young to be her children from a previous marriage, so maybe nephews?

In the 1860 and 1870 censuses of Candia, Rockingham, New Hampshire, Simon is living with his daughter and her family.
