John Carr (21 September 1819 – 10 February 1913) was a politician in colonial South Australia.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Hon John Carr )〕 ==History== Carr was born at Conisbrough, Yorkshire, a son of William Carr, who had a small farm at Styrrup from Doncaster, and was educated at Tickhill in that county, and worked on his father's farm. He emigrated to Australia in 1862 on the ''Merchant Prince'', which brought him to Melbourne, and thence to Adelaide on the ''Admella'', arriving on 17 July 1859 (a month later the ''Admella'' was wrecked with tragic consequences). He purchased at Dashwood's Gully, where he grew wheat and ran dairy cattle for 20 years, then sold up to live at Blackwood. Seventeen years later he took up on the Nullarbor Plain with Capt. Delissa and several others. They sold up later at a small profit, and Carr moved to Port Adelaide, where he served on the boards of several companies, and local chairman of the Corporation of South Australian Copper Mines. He was for several years chairman of the District Council of Onkaparinga.
