James Howlin Graves J.P., (14 December 1827 – 23 November 1910)〔 was an Australian politician, member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly 1877 to 1900 and 1902 to 1904.〔 〕 ==Early life== Graves was the second son of the late Captain J. Baker Graves, 14th Light Dragoons. James Graves was born at Maryborough, Queen's County, Ireland and educated at Boulogne-sur-Mer. 〔 〕 Matriculating at Trinity College, Dublin, in 1847, he studied for the law, which he abandoned for theology; graduated, and completed his professional course in 1852.〔 He married Julia Maria, second daughter of the late Captain J. W. Harvey, Coldstream Guards, a distinguished Waterloo officer. Graves for some time farmed his own property in Wexford, but on its being sold in the Irish Landed Estates Court to pay off family encumbrances, he emigrated to Australia, arriving in Melbourne in 1864. He at once embarked in pastoral pursuits at Teremia station, near Corowa, N.S.W., and had further commercial and pastoral experience in New South Wales and Victoria.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Graves (Australian politician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
