195 years ago....

On 28 May 1815 my convict ancestor Elizabeth Phipps gave birth to a daughter Louisa Westbrook. I can barely imagine what life was like for this mother and daughter in the early days of New South Wales' settlement.

On 23 Apr 1832 Louisa married a convict, Charles Clifford, at St Matthews Church in Windsor, NSW. and, in the ensuing 25 years bore him 12 children.

I have identified many Clifford cousins on my family website but would love to be in contact with all of Louisa and Charles descendants.
