Biography

William was born about 1824. He passed away in 1905.

William Palframan probably was one of the party of Settlers who left Yorkshire on the 'Haidee' to found a village in Natal, which they named York.

Note: William Palframan does not appear on the Passenger List of the 'Haidee'. However, he was in York, Natal in the early days. From documents held at the Registrar of Deeds in Pietermaritzburg, we learn that Robert Smith (1804-1881) bought Lots 3,39 and 72 from William Lund and subsequently transferred these to William Palframan on 31 March 1853 who, in turn, transferred these lots to Samuel Cordukes on 22 April 1864. Samuel Cordukes transferred Lot 3 to the Church of England on 5 December.
