William Bligh had six daughter. Elizabeth Bligh was born on 24 March 1786 at London, England. She was the daughter of Vice-Admiral William Bligh and Elizabeth Betham. She was baptised on 5 May 1786 at St. George's in the East, London. She married Richard Bligh (not a close relation) in December 1817. Anna Bligh's descent is from this couple.

She is a direct descendant of William Bligh, in the paternal line to Elizabeth Bligh, the Vice-Admiral's daughter. She inherits the Bligh surname from Richard Bligh.

As your older brother, I've been where you are—maybe not exactly, but close enough.
