- Church of England clergyman; b. 9 Aug. 1794 at Kingston, U.C., son of Robert Macaulay, loyalist, and Ann Kirby; d. Picton, Ont., 2 March 1874.
- Although he was a gifted preacher William Macaulay did not gain wide repute outside the two communities in which he served for over half a century and to which he is said to have given their present names. His obituary notice remarked: “He was a sound and consistent Churchman of the old Anglican type, courteous and genial to all. He was conservative, punctilious in the performance of duty, closely involved in local affairs, and independent in thought and action.
