Victor Windeyer
Major General Sir William John Victor Windeyer & Bar, KC (28 July 1900 – 23 November 1987) was an Australian judge, soldier, educator, and a Justice of the High Court of Australia.
==Early life and career==
Windeyer was born in Sydney, into a legal family: his father, William Archibald Windeyer,〔(1871–1943)〕 was a Sydney solicitor, his uncle, Richard Windeyer, was a King's Counsel, his grandfather, William Charles Windeyer, was twice Attorney-General of New South Wales and Judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, and his great-grandfather, Sir Richard Windeyer, was a barrister and member of the first elected Parliament of New South Wales, sitting in the New South Wales Legislative Council. Windeyer studied at Sydney Grammar School and later at the University of Sydney, from where he graduated with a Master of Arts and a Bachelor of Laws in 1922. He also won the University Medal in History.
In 1925, Windeyer was admitted to the New South Wales Bar Association. From 1929 to 1940, he lectured at the University of Sydney, teaching equity and commercial law, and until 1936, legal history. His book ''Essays in Legal History'' published in 1938 was for many years a standard textbook on the subject.〔Sydney: Law Book Co., 1938 second edition 1957, reprinted 1974〕
He married Margaret and they had four children Margaret, Bill, Jim and Frank. In 1938 he built a home called Peroomba〔Apparently after an Aboriginal word meaning wattle scrub, after the trees that once grew on the former horse paddock.〕 in Warrawee which only passed out of family ownership in 2008.〔http://north-shore-times.whereilive.com.au/news/story/hammer-set-to-fall-on-a-house-with/ North Shore Times, NSW.
