William Clifton was baptised on 22nd April 1797 at East Stoke in Nottinghamshire, son of a labourer called William Clifton and his wife Ann.
William was married at East Stoke on 17th September 1821, aged 24, to Sarah Bonser, who was 18 years old and also from East Stoke. After their marriage, William and Sarah settled in the nearby town of Newark on Trent, where they went on to have twelve children together between 1822 and 1848, although at least two died as infants and one of their daughters died in 1838, aged fourteen years old.
The 1841 and 1851 censuses both find William, Sarah and their children living on Mill Gate in Newark, being just south-west of the town centre and on the line of the Fosse Way Roman road. William was described as a labourer in 1841 and a groom in 1851.
By 1861 they were living at 6 Taylor's Yard in Newark and William was working as a gardener. Taylor's Yard was also in the Mill Gate area of the town, being a courtyard of small houses accessed through an alley beside the frontage house at 33 Mill Gate.
William was still working as a gardener in 1871, by which time the family had moved to 29 Victoria Street.
William died on 19th June 1876, aged 79. He died at Farndon Road in Newark, which is a continuation of Victoria Street. Sarah survived him by three years.
