Alfred Bowman Kidson (23 October 1863 – 23 May 1937) was an Australian lawyer, politician, and public servant. He was a member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia from 1895 to 1902, representing West Province. Kidson was born in London to Ernestine (née Morris) and William Kidson. He attended the Westminster School, and subsequently studied law. Kidson moved to Western Australia in 1887, and was admitted to the bar the same year. He subsequently went into practice with Douglas Gawler, who was also a future MP. Kidson served on the Claremont Road Board from 1893 to 1895. He first ran for parliament , the year in which the Legislative Council became fully elective. He placed fifth in that election, standing in West Province, but the following year won a by-election caused by the expulsion of Harry Marshall. , Kidson was elected to a six-year term in his own right. He retired in 1902, and left for an extended trip to England the same year. On his return to Australia in 1905, Kidson began practising law in Northam. He attempted to return to the Legislative Council , running for the Liberal Party in East Province, but was defeated by Charles Baxter of the Country Party. Kidson eventually returned to Perth, and from 1923 to 1931 was the acting police magistrate. He was then appointed to the state government's civil service commission. Kidson died in Perth in May 1937, aged 73. He had married Constance Forbes in 1887, with whom he had four children. (en) |
