Clifford was the second of three children of Charles John Kubley (born 1870 in Ipswich, QLD) and his second wife Eurnice Titmarsh (born 1874 at Fassifern, Ipswich, QLD). Charles was a Farmer at Boonah, Ipswich, QLD - a Widow with six children - in 1909 when he married Eunice.
Cliff, a Farm Labourer at Boonah, stated in his Attestation Papers that he served with the QLD Militia (Trooper, Service No:T2634) with 2/14th Light Horse Regiment for over five years. He enlisted the Army in November 1939 (Private, Service No: QX385) and was attached to 2/9th Infantry Battalion when he was Discharged as Medically Unfit in August 1940. Half brother Herbert Harold (Service No:3316) served in WWI.
Cliff was working in the Sawmills in 1942 when he married Ethel Marion Forster (born 1915 in Ipswich, QLD). Cliff and Ethel settled in Ipswich and Cliff worked as a Labourer until the early 1950s when he became an Elctrical Linesman. Ethel died in Ipswich in 1988 and Cliff died in 2001.
