| 词条 | Frank Archer (politician) |
| 释义 |
Archer was educated at Horton College at Ross. Born into a successful farming family, he was a farmer and merino breeder outside of politics. He purchased "Landfall" at Newnham in {{circa}} 1872; he also owned "Burnside" and properties at Point Effingham and Lauriston. He was chairman of the Dorset Road Trust for 21 years, was a Justice of the Peace and local coroner, lay preacher in the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and member of the Esk Rabbit Trust and Invermay Board of Health.[1][2] He was first elected to the House of Assembly at the 1893 election and was re-elected in 1897 and 1900. He died suddenly in office while bushwalking between Lilydale and Lisle in May 1902; although he had suffered some heart trouble, he had addressed his constituents at a large public meeting only two days before his death. He was buried at Longford Cemetery.[3][1][4] Archer was from a political family: his brother, uncle, two nephews, four cousins and brother-in-law were all members of the Parliament of Tasmania.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book | title=Biographical register of the Tasmanian Parliament, 1851-1960 | publisher=Australian National University Press | author=Bennett, Scott and Bennett, Barbara | year=1980}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Archer, Frank}}2. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article9583002 |title=LAUNCESTON. |newspaper=The Mercury |volume=LXXVII, |issue=10,050 |location=Tasmania, Australia |date=28 May 1902 |accessdate=30 July 2018 |page=4 |via=National Library of Australia}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article153820031 |title=STATE POLITICS |newspaper=Daily Telegraph |volume=XXII, |issue=124 |location=Tasmania, Australia |date=26 May 1902 |accessdate=30 July 2018 |page=2 |via=National Library of Australia}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article64565219 |title=Mr F.
