I can't find a baptism for Elizabeth or marriage for her parents.

That's it for this one then.

Trees suggest he married Elizabeth Backus in 1792 and Mary Playford in 1798, can find the records

Being Wesleyan/Methodist, probably a non-conformist marriage

I haven't been able to find Anna's birth/bap. that agrees with the trees

Sorry, one named Ann and one named Anna

 

[DaveHam9]

That is probably a cousin.


Oh. I have found a serious problem with my tree.

Wesleyan Marriages in the Camden Circuit
No. 5
Stephen Clifton & Ann Rootes both of Cobbity Paddock
15 Mar 1855 By me Rev. Joseph Fillingham of Camden
Witnesses: James & Mary Rootes, both of Cobbity Paddock

The full record says Ann is a widow.

 

[DaveHam9]

I think we restart at a different spot. :biggrin:

Work backwards from that 1855 marriage.

NSW Death 16783/1914 CLIFTON ANN - JAMES - HANNAH - BURWOOD

The Sydney Morning Herald - Saturday 5 December 1914 p.12
DEATHS
CLIFTON.-December 4, at her son's residence, The Bungalow, Nicholson-street, Burwood, Ann, widow of the late Stephen Clifton, late of Ashfield, aged 83. At rest.

The crazy thing is that it all fits 24 April 1831 Wesleyan Rye - parents James ROOTES and Hannah/Ann HICKS if we ignore the 'widow' bit.

That is probably a cousin.
