T. G. Waterhouse

Thomas Greaves Waterhouse JP (22 January 1811, Conisborough,〔Conisborough is/has also been known as Conisbrough and Conisburgh.〕 Yorkshire – 9 October 1885, London) was a prominent businessman, investor and philanthropist in early colonial South Australia arriving soon after the start of official settlement.〔 He was one of the early shareholders of the Burra Burra Mine, and for a long time held a seat on the Directorate. He was also involved in the establishment of the Bank of Adelaide.〔〔(Obituary ), SA Register, 10 October 1885. p. 6.〕
==Biography==
T. G. Waterhouse was born on 22 January 1811 in Conisborough,〔 Yorkshire. Aged 29, he came to the colony of South Australia (established in 1836),〔 Refer pp129-130〕 on the ''Lysander'', landing at Port Adelaide on 6 September 1840.
With his brother John〔page 3, ''South Australian Register'', Wednesday 23 February 1848〕 he successfully ran a grocery business at the intersection of King William Street and the then Rundle Street, then known as Waterhouse's Corner.〔The location on the corner of King William Street and Rundle Mall is opposite the Beehive Corner.〕 Adelaide's oldest shop is 1847 Waterhouse Chambers at 42-46 King William Street.〔(Adelaide City Council )〕 After twenty years in the colony he retired from business in 1861. Following his retirement, his affairs were managed by his eldest son Arthur.〔
A member of the Wesleyan Church, he devoted one-tenth of his income to the causes of charity and religion, and did not confine his benevolence to his own Church, extending it to all charitable objects and the assistance of struggling men.〔
He and his wife returned to England in 1868. Prior to their departure for England, Mr & Mrs Waterhouse were given a farewell breakfast in the Pirie Street Wesleyan Lecture Hall; the Chairman of the District, the Rev. John Watsford, presided. Watsford made special mention of Mrs Waterhouse. "He" (Watsford) "held that the gentleman should hold the reins, but the good wife would always sit by his side, and make him drive just where she chose. (Renewed laughter)"〔''The South Australian Advertiser'', Friday 31 January 1868, Page 5〕
In December 1885 the ''Wallaroo Times'' reported that "the late Mr. T. G. Waterhouse's property in England will be proved at one million and a quarter sterling" but in February 1886 it was reported his will dated 23 May 1883 had been sworn at under £493,000.〔''The Bunyip'', Friday 19 February 1886.〕
