Simon Finch was the first Finch to step foot on American soil. He made a great deal of money but was not happy so he got married. He had 8 daughters and one son. The son's name was "Welcome Finch." This is a clever little twist that Ms. Lee puts in the story. After 8 daughters a son was truely welcome in the Finch household, so they simply named him Welcome Finch. This part of the story can be found in chapter 9 on page 88, of "To Kill A Mockingbird."
