George Martin (1858 – 14 May 1905) was an auctioneer and member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly.[1]
Martin was born in Clarence, New South Wales, to parents George Martin and his wife Mary (née McPhee). He spent many years in Ballina where he worked as a farmer and also auctioneer.[1] He moved to Childers around 1900 and continued in those trades.[1][2]
