History
William Bell (1780-1857) was a Presbyterian minister, ordained in Edinburgh in 1817. That year he came to Canada as minister for the Scottish immigrants who had formed the Perth settlement. For many years he did a large amount of home mission work over the county of Lanark and part of Leeds. Increasing infirmity compelled him to cease his ministrations early in 1857 and he died later that year.
