Further to #Liverpool #GeorgesDock #LandingStage and #WilliamShawSimpson, Alamy have a photo of Simpson's restaurant. His wife Margaret, two daughters and two waitressess continued to live on the landing stage (1891 census).
For Simpson's major role in labour relations in the docks 1871 onward, see: https://archive.org/details/liverpooldockers0000unse/page/82/mode/2up?q=simpson%5C%27s+landing+stage
Simpson's once famous bowl for charitable donations is apparently in the collections of the #MaritimeMuseum.
