The history of the Upper Blackwood Shire was conceived and written as a tribute to the pioneer men and women of this district who settled here when the Shire was just an area of isolated bush. They bore the heat and burden of the day, all the hardships of isolation, lack of roads and railways, and the absence of medicine or comforts of any kind, and overcame them. With nothing but their willpower and a few primitive tools, they carved out homes and farms and laid the foundations for what is today one of the most productive areas in Western Australia.

The Shire has come a long way since establishing local government in 1896. The population in 1897 was barely 330 people, and in the late 1960s, it had grown to 2000. (Introduction)
