About this site...

This site is dedicated to the descendants of Andrew and Ellinor Freeborn of Alstonville, NSW.

Andrew and his brother Thomas took the first two selections of land in the area which is know known as Alstonville.

Their story is an example of the hardships endured by the early pioneers. A plaque dedicated to Andrew Freeborn still stands in the towns centre.

I am keen to hear from other descendants of Andrew and Ellinor, please contact me at FreebornHistory@gmail.com - thank you - Thomas McGovern
