YOUNG, Robert Malcolm (1881-1911) worked in Toronto, at first under his own name, and later in partnership with Henry Simpson (see list of works under Simpson & Young). Born in Toronto he joined the Queen's Own Rifles at the age of nineteen years and served overseas with Canadian forces in the Boer War. After his return to Toronto he worked as draftsman with the Board of Education Building Department for three years and joined Henry Simpson in September 1907 (Const., i, Oct. 1907, 19). This partnership was dissolved in late 1910, and he then worked as an engineer for the Dominion Radiator Company before his sudden death from pneumonia on 4 May 1911 (obituary and port. in Toronto World, 5 May 1911, 8; Toronto Star, 4 May 1911, 1; Mail & Empire [Toronto], 5 May 1911, 5)
