In this podcast, Andrew introduces us to the history of the Redfern family and their prominence and influence in the town of Redfern, Sydney, Australia.

The suburb of Redfern is named after Andrew's third great, uncle, Dr. William Redfern, who was initially transported to Australia as a convict in 1801.

Learn more about this fascinating history of the Redfern family and how Andrew made the discovery of an unpublished manuscript of Dr. William Redfern, by Blanche Dunlop, in the State Library of NSW.
