Note*..an energetic & resourceful man, purchased 500 acres adjoining Hoddy which he named "Rosscrae". Forward, a wheelwright and blacksmith by trade, turned his attention to farming, initially developing "Glenroy" at Mt. Dick, Northam, before selecting land at Mindunning and Cunjardine. He and his wife, Emil, daughter of Richard Morrell, gradually purchased a substantial holding in the region, eventually absorbing Hoddy and Cooke's small farms into their own. William Forward's sons, Lewis, Roy and Harold Douglas, who possessed the indominable spirit of their father, gradually developed portion of the properties whilst living in a tent near the roadside. A small two roomed stone and mud mortar cottage was then erected on "Rosscrae". (page 75)

Goomalling A Backward Glance - A History of the District. Barbara Sewell. Published by Goomalling Shire Council, 1998

..William Forward, Northam was born at Mt Hardy near York on Jan 24th 1847, and is a son of the late William Forward, who came from Kent, England in 1830 and settled down to grazing pursuits in the York districts coming to Northam during the early days of settlement and opening the first hotel in the neighbourhood in the early sixties. After conducting his business for some years the late Mr. Forward resumed farming occupations in the Seabrook district, where he died at the ripe old age of ninety-two. The gentleman under review aquired the rudiments of learning at a night school carried on by the late Mr. Lloyd, also studying for a time under private tuition with the children of the late Frederick Morrell. At an early age he was apprenticed to the balcksmithing trade at Northam with the late Mr Wilding, and after completing his indentures, opened in business for himself as a wheelwright and blacksmith. For a quarter of a century Mr. Forward conducted the smithy and extensive general trade which was the nucleus of the large establishment and connection now managed so successfully by Messrs. Withnell Brothers, of Northam. About the end of this period he turned his attentions to farming pursuits and commenced in turn the development of three separate farms, which he afterwards passed on to his sons, himself retiring from active life and settling down quietly in his home here at Northam where he still resides. In the early years of the history of the town as a municipality Mr. Forward played his part in the arena of local government, serving the ratepayers for some time as a member of the Council. He is a member of the agricultural society, and is looked upon as one of the pioneer settlers who in the early days of the land movement in the district bore the burden and heat of the day and shared the privations incident to the building up of the farming industry and the making of the place the prosperous provincial centre that it is today. He finds recreation in the society of old frindes, with whom he lives over the old days of the past, and in making frequent visits to the properties upon which his sons are settled. Mr Forward married in July, 1873, Emily, daughter of the late Richard Morrell, also an early pioneer of the State, and has three sons and three daughters surviving.
