History
This area was part of the 50 acre Laycock estate granted to Hannah Laycock (1758-1831), the wife of Quartermaster Thomas Laycock (1756-1809), in 1804.
Frederick Moore Clements, who became wealthy from selling the family health restorer, Clements Tonic, owned forty acres near William Street until his death in 1920. 'Clementon Park' was an early suggestion for the suburb’s name but records show Clemton Park was used from 1925. [1]
