Alfred James Kirton (14 April 1877 – 20 April 1960) was an Australian politician. He was born in Ballarat to bookmaker Emanuel Kirton and Jane Milburn. He left school at the age of twelve to work for a draper, and from the age of fifteen worked in a Melbourne warehouse. Around 1901 he married Edith Augusta Pope, with whom he had two daughters; he would remarry in 1911, to Alice Emily Rouvray, with whom he had a further three children. He ran a bakery in Brunswick from 1913 until 1921, when he retired to Mornington. He served on Mornington Shire Council from 1926 to 1952 and was twice president (1927–28, 1947–48). In 1932 he was elected to the Victorian Legislative Assembly as the United Australia Party member for Mornington. He defected to the Country Party in 1939, and served until his retirement in 1947. His brother Joseph also served in the Assembly. Kirton died in Mornington in 1960.[1] References1. ^{{cite web | last = Parliament of Victoria | first = | authorlink = Parliament of Victoria | coauthors = | title = Kirton, Alfred James | work = re-member: a database of all Victorian MPs since 1851 | publisher = Parliament of Victoria | date = 2001 | url = http://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/re-member/bioregfull.cfm?mid=1213 | format = | doi = | accessdate = 28 December 2015}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-vic-la}}{{s-bef|before=Herbert Downward}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Mornington | years=1932–1947}}{{s-aft|after=William Leggatt}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kirton, Alfred}} 6 : 1877 births|1960 deaths|Liberal Party of Australia members of the Parliament of Victoria|National Party of Australia members of the Parliament of Victoria|Members of the Victorian Legislative Assembly|People from Ballarat |
