Charles Hervey Bagot (17 April 1788 – 29 July 1880),[1] often referred to as "Captain Bagot", was an Irish-born South Australian pastoralist, mine owner and parliamentarian, and was the ancestor of a number of notable South Australian citizens. HistoryBagot was born in Nurney in County Kildare, Ireland, son of Christopher Bagot and Elizabeth, née Clibborn,[1] and in 1805 joined the British Army and was gazetted to the 87th Foot Regiment. He is reported as having served with distinction in India during the Mahratta War,[2] and was promoted to the rank of Captain. About the year 1819 he was retired on half pay to Ennis in County Clare, where he was appointed to the Commission of the Peace, and generally lived the life of a country gentleman. In 1840 he emigrated to South Australia on the Birman with his wife Mary, née MacCarthy, and their five children, arriving at Port Adelaide on 17 December 1840.[3] PastoralistAround 1840 Bagot selected a section of {{convert|1500|acre}} at Koonunga on the River Light, on which he ran sheep in partnership with Frederick Hansborough Dutton. The partnership was dissolved in 1843 and Dutton took the lease on another property near Kapunda, which he named Anlaby for a village in Yorkshire.[4] Bagot was the first to use John Ridley's reaping machine.[5] Copper miningTowards the end of 1842 his youngest son Charles Samuel Bagot came across mineral specimens on his father's property near the site of the present Kapunda. Around the same time Francis Stacker Dutton found similar outcrops on nearby Anlaby, which he was developing with his brother Frederick Hansborough Dutton. When the Dutton brothers took steps to secure the land around this discovery, they learned of Bagot's find and together got 80 acres surveyed, tendered for it in the Government Gazette, and bought it for the fixed Government price for "waste lands" at £1 an acre. Later, when a second section was put up for auction, Dutton and Bagot had to bid up to £2,210 to secure it.[6] They secured a mining lease, for which, with one Ravenshaw,[7] he floated a company to work what was in 1844 the first copper mine in Australia (some 18 months before Burra Burra), and lasted until 1877. PoliticsBagot was appointed as Member of the South Australian Legislative Council on 1 July 1844[8] then was elected to the Assembly seat of Light 12 July 1851 until resigning on 7 July 1853[9] and for the Legislative Council again, in the days when the whole colony voted as one electorate ("The Province") on 9 March 1857, serving until 27 March 1861 and on 1 March 1865 until 29 January 1869.[9] When he resigned in 1853, John Tuthill Bagot, a distant relation, perhaps a nephew,[12] was elected in his place. In the first council Bagot distinguished himself by his opposition to Colonel Robe's proposals for endowing selected religious bodies ("State aid") and for imposing a royalty on minerals.[10] Other interestsIn 1853 Bagot built the family residence "Nurney House" on Stanley Street (later 127 Kingston Terrace), North Adelaide, later largely rebuilt around 1930.[11][12] Bagot helped found North Adelaide Congregational Church in 1864 and was a leader of the Total Abstinence League. He published The National Importance of Emigration (London, 1863). He was Chairman of the Royal Agricultural and Horticultural Society in 1848. (And his grandson Christopher Michael Bagot Jr. (1852–1899) was Secretary from 1890 to 1899.) FamilyCharles Hervey Bagot "Captain Bagot" (c. 17 April 1788 – 29 July 1880) married Mary MacCarthy ( – 17 January 1860) around 1815. He died in North Adelaide, South Australia.[2] Their extensive family included:
Charles Bagot (1791 – 8 August 1864) of Kilcoursey House, Kings County, Ireland, who also had a number of descendants in South Australia, may have been a brother of Charles Hervey Bagot.[12] He married Anna Tuthill, died in Ireland. Charles Bagot (1791 – 8 August 1864) of Kilcoursey House, Kings County married Anna Tuthill; died in Ireland
Robert Cooper Bagot (c. 1827 – 14 April 1881), born in Fontstown, County Kildare, civil engineer in Queensland and Victoria and first secretary of the Victoria Racing Club invariably referred to as R. C. Bagot, was not clearly related. Placenames in SA and NT
