Mr. Robert Stewart was the Municipal Clerk and Treasurer of Bradford starting in 1861. He had previously run a grocery and liquor store, but the fire of 1892 put him out of business. He was born in Kincardinshire, Scotland, who came to Canada in 1854, and settled in Bradford.

William Campbell was originally from Ireland, and came to Canada in 1857, first settling in Brantford, then Newmarket, before coming to Bradford in 1862. He was a grain buyer, and dealer in coal, lumber, and shingles. He was also on the municipal council, and reeve for two years, as well as chief engineer of the fire company. He was the father of Dr. L.H. Campbell, and Mr. W.L. Campbell, and the grandfather of Lewis B. Campbell, who still resides in Bradford.

The article accompanying this photograph gives a quick history of Bemrose Co. General Store, owned by the Bemrose brothers John and James. Their father, John, was a contractor and was well known in the town, a reputation which was passed down to the brothers. This store in the photograph was run by James Bemrose alone after his return to Bradford in 1901 in the former store of J.S. Boddy, and was in the same block as the Edmanson businesses on Holland Street (near 71 Holland St. East).
James Bemrose was a member of the Masonic Order. This photograph was taken because he was part of Bradford's Model School Board, along with other board members.
