His namesake was Clifford Sifton, the Minister of the Interior for immigration from 1896 to 1905, who induced a variety of agriculturally inclined European emigrants to Western Canada to settle prairie land around the transcontinental railway.
In 1905, Clifford's father, William Frederick decided to go west to the newly formed province of Saskatchewan. Wm Frederick's step-brother Fred Stender and his family had already settled at Gap View in the south eastern corner of the province near what would become Moose Mountain Provincial Park in 1908.
In time. the Gap View farm failed to provide an adequate livelihood and the family once again moved further west, in 1909, to the Assiniboia district located in the south central area of Saskatchewan and settled on land in the RM of Stonehenge #73, six miles northwest of what would eventually become the village/town of Assiniboia.
Clifford married Laura McDowal in Assiniboia January 19, 1957
Enlisting in 1939, Clifford served overseas with the Regina Rifles.
