  James Fields Rolls was born in Woodstock, Ontario on January 1, 1839, son of Dr. Charles Philip Rolls and Maria Fields.

Like his father, he was a doctor and dispensed drugs, managing the Vancouver Drug Company before moving to the interior. He settled at Hedley, British Columbia, where in the early part of the twentieth century, the population was rising due to the gold mining industry.
