The Rope-Pulley Family Heritage Association is a group of descendants from the two First Fleeters, Anthony Rope and Elizabeth Pulley.
Its aims are :
❀ | to be a central focal point for research into the descendants of First Fleet Convicts : Anthony Rope and Elizabeth Pulley |
❀ | to consolidate information from the family lines and to share stories about our Australian heritage |
❀ | to preserve family archives and heritage items where possible |
You can read about Anthony & Elizabeths' lives on the
Convicts and
Farmers pages.
Together they had 8 children, 6 of whom had families.
There is further information about their children on the separate story pages. The
Service - WW1 page lists all family members who served our country in WW1.
Interactive Maps is an educational page that has 2 maps. The Story Map shows points around the greater Sydney area where important events in Anthony & Elizabeth's lives occured. The Descendancy Map shows where each of the first 10 generations were born; there are no personal details on this map.
Use the
Family Trees menu list item to choose from the individual family tree lines that are available.
Membership is $15 per year to any descendant of Anthony & Elizabeth. We are a Not-For-Profit Assoc. Members receive quarterly newsletters and are welcome to attend meetings. See the
