- History
- William Henry "Henry" Rowling was born February 9, 1826 in Truro, Cornwall, England. His wife, Mary Russell Rowling, was born November 19, 1832 in Strickland, Dorset, England. Their first child, Rosetta Mary "Rose" Rowling, was born August 8, 1858 in Plumstead, Woolwhich, Kent while Henry was in Esquimalt working as a Royal Engineer. The family then moved to New Westminster, and grew larger: James William Russell "Jim" Rowling born October 14, 1862; Henry Soar Rowling was born February 3, 1864; Priscilla Amelia Rowling (later Byrne) was born February 24, 1866; and William Henry Kemp Rowling was born September 2, 1867. The family settled at their farm on the North Arm of the Fraser River in September of 1868. They raised livestock and grew produce on their property for their family, which continued to grow. Thomas George Rowling was born on April 14, 1869 and Elizabeth Jane Russell Rowling was born on August 24, 1847. The Rowling children were raised Presbyterian but Priscilla later converted to Roman Catholicism when she married her husband, Peter Byrne, on May 15, 1892. As young adults, Priscilla and Peter lived on the North Arm, close to Priscilla's parents and youngest sister, Elizabeth. Her brother Henry moved his logging operations near the Byrne residence while James lived in South Vancouver with a family of his own. Their other siblings, Rose and Thomas, had passed away by this time. Peter and Priscilla had six children: Margaret Gladys Byrne, born February 28, 1893; twin daughters Mary and Norah; Kathleen; Ultan Patrick "Pat"; and Elizabeth Laura Byrne (later Cyr). After Henry and Mary Rowlings died in 1906, Elizabeth lived with her sister Priscilla and her nieces and nephews.

- History
- John (Jack) Pipe was born in Ontario in 1875 and moved to Burnaby with his wife Blanche in 1916. Prior to moving to Burnaby, Jack worked as a superintendent in the Phoenix and Granby Bay mines. While working in Phonenix, he met and married Blanche Perry in 1909. Jack and Blanche had eight children: Frederick Stewart; Dorothy Mary; George Russell; John Douglas; Kathleen Margaret; Harold Calvin; Olive Muriel; and David Melvin. Due to poor health, Jack retired from mining work in 1916 and moved his family to Burnaby. The family purchased property at 5250 Government Road where they built their home and raised their family. In 1938, John and Blanche sold this property and purchased another piece of property located within DL 44. Jack died of silicosis in 1953.
