In the forties Joseph Doust opened a store on the Main Southern Road at Cawdor, planting a vineyard adjoining. It was here, at Cawdor, Ellen Doust was born in 1851. At the age of 23 she married Thomas William Boardman, son of another pioneer; William Boardman, who in 1841 farmed the property now known as Lynn Farm, Camden, having arrived in Australia with his wife from England in 1838.
