Bayldon was born in 1865, at Leeds, England, and was educated at Leeds Grammar School.[2] He emigrated to the Colony of New South Wales in 1889 prior to which he had travelled extensively in Europe. He was an excellent swimmer, and drew much attention to a stroke of his own invention — underwater on his back, with legs and arms bound.[3]

He was literary critic for The Bulletin, and as a bush poet has been ranked with Henry Lawson, Banjo Patterson, Will Ogilvie, E. J. Brady, and Rod Quinn.[4]

He died in 1958, aged 93.
