Eliza Forlong (1784–1859) was an Australian pioneer who played a large part in introducing Merino sheep to south-east Australia.

[1] Never content with the size and situation of their land grants, the family conducted an "epistolary war" with colonial officials.

In April 1834, in an attempt to influence English authorities, Eliza, her husband, John and son, Andrew went back in the ship Norval to Great Britain.

In the early 1850s, William bought the lease of Seven Creeks station from Barnes and Holland[3] near Euroa.

Eliza ran the house and managed station affairs in the frequent absences of William and his wife.

Alfred William Howitt, an Australian anthropologist, explorer and naturalist, described her as "one of the pleasantest and most energetic ladies I have ever met with".
