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.

- Councillor James Byfield, J.P., who represented the Central ward in the municipality of Northam, was born at Mahogany Creek, near Guildford, on April 22, 1849. His father, the late Edward Harold Byfield, was one of WA's early pioneers, and his mother also arrived in the State at a very early period of its history, having accompanied the wife of the first Governor (Sir James Stirling) as children's nurse. Under the primitive conditions of the fifties educational facilites were difficult to obtain, and James, with the help of a little private tuition, was largely dependent on his own efforts in the direction of scholastic attainments. At 15 years of age he was apprenticed to the wheelwright and machinist trade, under the late Solomon Cook, a name well known to the early residents of WA; and on reaching man's estate, came to Northam, where his father had purchased for him, in 1850, the second block of land sold in the district, where he, in 1912, was still the oldest landholder - the property, which in the original instance cost three guineas, was valued at over 2,000 pounds [1912]. After his arrival in Northam, James established himself in his trade, and was the manufacturer of the first buggy and most of the original agricultural machinery in the district. He was also responsible for the erection of nearly half the buildings in Northam, and assisted many householders to build their own homes on the building society principle. During the 16 years that he carried on business James managed, in conjunction with his trade, what was then the largest flour mill in WA, which, built by the late Mr. T. Wilding, he purchased from Mr. Gregory. About 1888 he imported from America the first complete roller plant ever brought to WA. As a result of the installation of this plant the wheat in the district rose in value by 20%, and a fillip was given to local production. The flour produced at the mill gained a special prize at the Coolgardie Exhibition (1899) in competition with all the Australian States, and won further distinction at the French Exhibition (1900) and Glasgow Exhibition (1901). James was made the recipient of a handsome illustrated address by the agriculturists of the district, in recognition of his single-handed and spirited action in redeeming the State from the unprogressive condition in which, from an agricultural and milling standpoint, it had lain for so long a period. By 1912 James gave his attention chiefly to his landed interests in Northam, and the management of his farm of 800 acres which adjoined the town site. He cropped a third of his area per annum, and during the 1912 season averagead over 30 bushels of wheat to the acres, while he also had a nice orchard surrounding his pretty villa, where a variety of stone fruits and vines flourished, together with a few vegetables. Upon the creation of the Northam Municipality about 1878 James was elected second on the poll, and sustained the distinction, unrivalled in the State, of holding the seat ever since [1912]; he also filled the office of mayor for a term. From 1899 he exercised a Commission of the Peace granted him by the Forrest Administration. He was a moving spirit in the Rechabite movement for 40 years, and filled all offices of honour in that body, in addition to the trusteeship which he held since the founding of the first lodge in Northam. He was well known in religious and charitable circles, and took a prominent part in the Wesleyan Church, of which he was a trustee. James married in 1872 Elizabeth, daughter of the late W Forward, of Salt River, Northam, and had [1912] one surviving son & two daughters, another son having been accidentally shot in 1910 while getting through a fence with a loaded gun (ref #471,pp523-524)
