Daniel Fisher (politician) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Daniel Fisher (politician) Daniel Fisher (11 November 1812 – 2 June 1884) was a grain merchant and politician in the young colony of South Australia. ==History== Daniel Fisher was born in of Wiltshire, and transported to Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) aged 15, for what he was later to describe as "an unfortunate mistake" and "a boyish escapade, involving no moral offence" for which he was later exonerated and, on a petition from the Hon. J. Baker received a Royal Pardon. He and his wife Harriet Brown, (md. Hobart Town, Tasmania 6/11/1837) moved to South Australia aboard the ''Timbo'', arriving at Port Adelaide in April 1846. He set up in business as a cornfactor and seedsman (grain merchant) in Rundle Street. His brother Charles arrived in Adelaide in 1848, for a time working as a contractor then joined Charles as Charles as "Fisher Brothers", (not to be confused with the earlier hardware firm of the same name run by the unrelated James Hurtle Fisher). Charles left the partnership in October 1856 and set up in Grenfell Street on his own account. Daniel joined the gold rush to Victoria, but returned to Adelaide without having made a fortune. Other members of his family joined him in South Australia. He was convicted of assault after repeatedly charging his brother-in-law George P. Harris (co-founder of Harris Scarfe) on horseback and making threatening gestures.
