has abstract	James Umpherston (1812 – 28 October 1900) was a farmer and politician, a noted settler of Mount Gambier, South Australia. Umpherston was born in Cambuslang, Lanarkshire, Scotland, and worked as a farmer until he emigrated to South Australia on the Ariadne, arriving in August 1839.

He next took up land at Attamurra, 4 miles (6.4 km) north-east of Mount Gambier, naming his property "Cadzow", later owned by John Kennedy. He sold up there and moved to the Myora Estate, 9 miles (14 km) east of Mount Gambier, which he sold to W. A. Crouch in 1875.
