Adolphus Henry Everand Barton (1846 – 20 May 1916) was a Pastoralist, and member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly.[1]
Barton was born in London to parents William Henry Barton and his wife Sarah Hannah.[1] After arriving in Australia he was educated at Melbourne Church of England Grammar School.[1] After two years gaining pastoral experience in New Zealand he became manager of his father's Armadilla Station in 1864. He then settled in Stanthorpe as a stock and station agent and later on became the licensee of Farley's Hotel in that town.[1]
