Ernest Purnell
Ernest Bracher Purnell (27 September 1866 – 25 July 1954)〔(Ernest Bracher Purnell ) — Ancestry.com. Retrieved 13 April 2015.〕 was a Trade union secretary and member of the Queensland Legislative Council.
Purnell was born at Swansea, Wales to Thomas Purnell and his wife Caroline (née Bracher).〔 He worked in Broken Hill as a miner〔 before moving to Rockhampton where he began a long association with the Waterside Workers' Federation including the role of secretary for 37 years until 1938.
==Political career==
When the Labour Party starting forming governments in Queensland, it found much of its legislation being blocked by a hostile Council, where members had been appointed for life by successive conservative governments. After a failed referendum in May 1917, Premier Ryan tried a new tactic, and later that year advised the Governor, Sir Hamilton John Goold-Adams, to appoint thirteen new members whose allegiance lay with Labour to the Council.〔("Goold-Adams, Sir Hamilton John (1858–1920)" ) ''Australian Dictionary of Biography''. Retrieved 13 April 2015.〕
Purnell was one of the 13 new members, and went on to serve for four and a half years until the Council was abolished in March, 1922.〔
