The golden grain
a history of Edwin Davey & Sons, pioneer flourmillers and grain merchants of South Australia at Penrice, Angaston, Eudunda, Salisbury, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Sydney 1865-1985
by Jean P. Fielding
Edwin Davey (1839-1923) was the ninth child of Thomas Davey and Margaret Lean. Thomas and his family immigrated in 1848 from Cornwall to Adelaide, South Australia, to join Thomas' brother William and family who had immigrated in 1846. Thomas and his family settled at Moorooroo, South Australia. Edwin married his cousin, Phillis Vingoe Davey, in 1859, and by 1865 he and his brother James had purchased a flour mill just north of Adelaide. From this beginning, the firm of Edwin Davey and Sons eventually did business in most of the cities of South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and elsewhere. Descen- dants and relatives lived in South Australia, Victoria and elsewhere.
