    3. Hi Listers, This isnt to do with Penrith but I thought it was quite interesting. Sydney Morning Herald 17/3/1854 - Windsor Death of the Oldest White Australian. On Friday last, Mrs Diana Teale, widow of the late Mr John Teale, miller of Windsor, died at her residence in Macquarie street. We believe Mrs Teale was the second white person born, and the first to live to maturity, after birth, in the colony since its foundation by Governor Phillip sixty-six years ago, she having been born a few months thereafter. We are also informed that Mrs Teale's father, the late Mr Joseph Kable, was the first man in the party of the above named Governor to set his foot on shore at Sydney, in the name of the British Government.
