FamilyThe son of David James King (1873-), and Emily Mary King, née Matthews, later Mrs. Edwards, Stuart Patrick King was born in Ararat, Victoria on 22 April 1906. He married Kathleen Patricia Lightfoot (1911-) at Newman College's chapel on 14 January 1935.[1][2][3] They had two children: Gerald and Diana.[4] EducationEducated at the University of Melbourne, he graduated Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) in 1930,[5] and was admitted to the bar on 1 May 1931.[6] CricketBorn in Ararat, Victoria, King started his cricket career first, debuting for Victoria in the 1926/27 Sheffield Shield season, on 17 December 1926, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, against Queensland.[7] He was a right-handed wicket-keeper batsman and batted in the middle order. The last of his 12 first-class matches was played in 1932/33 and he finished with 417 runs at 27.80. His claim to fame as a cricketer was scoring seven of Victoria's world record 1107 runs against New South Wales in his debut summer. FootballHaving been recruited from the University Blacks, King played his first VFL match for St Kilda in 1931 and the following year was appointed club captain. When Charlie Hardy left the Saints seven games into the 1932 season he acted as a caretaker coach for the rest of the year. King played mostly as a defender and in his three seasons managed 43 games. Military serviceAlready a well-established barrister and solicitor,[8] King enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force on 30 March 1942 as an intelligence officer, and was posted to 20 Squadron, gaining the rank of Flying Officer. DeathHe was killed in action off the coast of New Guinea on 28 February 1943.[9][10][11] King wasn't a member of the crew - he went along as a ‘supernumerary’ person to observe the mission.[12] See also
