Samuel Bakewell (ca.1815 – 22 September 1888) was a wholesale grocer and politician in the young colony of South Australia. His brother William Bakewell was also a politician. ==History== Samuel was born in Leicester, England, and emigrated on the ''Superb'', arriving in South Australia on 11 July 1939. He joined the brothers John and Thomas Waterhouse's grocery business on the corner of Rundle and King William Streets (later Duhst & Biven's) opposite the Beehive Corner. Around 1850 he opened his own wholesale grocery, "China tea warehouse", in Hindley Street (then the premier retail area), and was financially successful. He was elected to the City of Adelaide seat in the South Australian House of Assembly and served from March 1860 to November 1862.
