"William Clark Penfold (1864 - 1945), printer and stationer, was born on 23 June 1864 at Paddington, Sydney, eldest son of Edwin Thomas Penfold (d.1900), tobacco merchant, and his wife Susannah (d.1918), née Clark. Edwin had arrived in New South Wales in 1853 and, after working on the goldfields, established a successful tobacco business in Sydney. Selling out to Thomas Saywell in March 1874, he took his wife and family to England for three years. On their return in May 1878 the family lived at Burwood. William completed his education at Sydney Grammar School."
