When he arrived in Queensland he took up farming. He attended primary school in Croydon and by 1916 he was working as an engine driver and cleaner for Queensland Railways. From 1925 until his election to parliament he worked as a fireman in Mackay.[1] On the 14th June 1922 he married Agnes May Bowling[1] (died 1977)[2] and together had one daughter. Graham died in Brisbane in June 1996 and was cremated at the Mt Thompson Crematorium.[3] Public careerWhen the Premier of Queensland, William Forgan Smith, retired from politics in December 1942,[4] Graham, a fellow Labor Party member, won the resultant by-election.[5] He went on to represent the electorate for 26 years before retiring from politics at the 1969 Queensland state election.[1] In 1972 and after his retirement, Graham was expelled by the Labor Party after criticising the decision of the special Labor convention that year in not re-endorsing Ed Casey, who successfully stood in the 1972 state election as an Independent Labor candidate. He was re-admitted to the party in 1977 which was seen in part as a further step in coercing Casey to return to the party.[1] At the time of his death in 1996 he was the oldest former member of the House and the last surviving member of Frank Cooper's government from 1942 to 1946.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|title=Former Members|publisher=Parliament of Queensland|year=2015| url=http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/members/former/bio?id=478441985|accessdate=23 May 2016}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-qld}}{{s-bef|before= William Forgan Smith}}{{s-ttl |title= Member for Mackay|years=1943–1969}}{{s-aft|after=Ed Casey}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Graham, Frederick Dickson}}2. ^[https://www.qld.gov.au/law/births-deaths-marriages-and-divorces/family-history-research/ Family history research] — Queensland Government births, deaths, marriages, and divorces.
