Graham, Harold John (1858 - 1929)

Hoping to recover from illness, Scottish-born Graham sailed to eastern Australia in 1881. A keen amateur artist, he recorded his observations of places and the local flora and fauna.

He worked as a draughtsman in the Water Conservation Branch of the Public Works Department in Sydney.

Retiring because of ill health, Graham together with his wife and children, returned to England in 1900.
