has abstract	William Wedd Tuxford (bapt. 20 November 1826 – 28 January 1878) was a parliamentarian and agricultural machinery dealer in the early days of the Colony of South Australia. He was born in Boston, Lincolnshire the son of John Tuxford and Hannah Parker, and apprenticed as a printer, at one stage working on the Mark Lane Express agricultural weekly partly, later fully, owned by his brother George Parker Tuxford (ca.1810–1870). He arrived in South Australia in May 1853 and set himself up with brother John Lefevre Tuxford as the Colony's first importer of agricultural machinery, between Grote and Gouger Streets, near Selby Street, then opened on North Terrace in December 1858. They acted as Australian agent for Mark Lane Express, which they sold at the London cover price. Business dropped off however as local manufacture of such equipment boomed, compounded by some unsuccessful speculation in mining ventures, and was forced to close his machinery business, which ceased trading in 1873. He took up management of the City Arms Hotel on King William Street in July 1875. He was elected to the Legislative Council on 1 March 1865, retiring on 2 February 1873, though he was never a prominent figure in Parliament or politics. He was for many years a committee member of the Agricultural and Horticultural Society. He was an active Freemason. (en)
