Thomas Hyndes

• Note*: Thomas Hyndes is mentioned on the Burwood Council webpage as follows: "In about 1833, the owners of a number of grants commenced to subdivide and sell their lands and thus commenced the growth of the suburb of Burwood.
  
  The earliest commercial activity in the area was the Enfield lumber trade. Thomas Hyndes, a young Londoner who arrived in Sydney in 1803, received an early grant in Enfield which was not recognised by Governor Macquarie. Hyndes returned to Enfield in 1823. By this time he had become a prosperous timber merchant with a mill and a house in Sussex Street and properties on the North Shore and in the Illawarra district. In 1842, he set up his country home on the Punchbowl Road, naming it Adelaide Park after his daughter. By the mid 1840s, wood cutters, gardeners, innkeepers, storekeepers and blacksmiths were forming the nucleus of a village along Parramatta Road, and Hyndes was something of a village squire.
  
  Hyndes built a substantial stone schoolhouse which opened in 1847 as the Adelaide Park Free School. This was used as a church before the opening of St Thomas' in 1848.
  
  Hyndes is said to have commissioned a prominent Sydney architect, John Frederick Hilly, to design a typical English village church, such as he had known as a boy. The portrait of Thomas Hyndes and his wife are preserved in St Thomas' Church porch."¹
  
• Marriage: He married Lucy Havens, daughter of Robert Havens and Janet Crabbe, on 11 April 1850 at Holy Trinity, Ashfield, NSW, AUS; Thomas Hyndes of psh Holy Trinity & Lucy Havens otp ---- by lic with consent of friends wit David Ramsay & Learmonth of Jamison St. also "Lucy Havens by special lic on 19 Apr 1850 at Ashfield ch by Rev F Wilkinson to Thomas Hyndes Rsq of Cheshunt House, Cumberland Place Sydney.

  Life Summary
  
  PURVES, WILLIAM (1811-1870), Presbyterian minister, was born on 26 July 1811 at Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland, son of William Purves, artificer. Educated at the parish school, he attended arts classes at the University of Edinburgh in 1827-28 and 1830-31 while studying for the ministry of the Church of Scotland. He was licensed by the Presbytery of Dunbar on 6 April 1836 and arrived at Sydney in 1839. Ordained by the Presbytery of Sydney on 14 December 1840, he was inducted minister at Port Macquarie, where he had the first church and manse built and ministered to settlers in the Hastings, Macleay and Manning Rivers districts. In 1844 the presbytery investigated rumours about him, possibly involving alcohol, but they proved unfounded and malicious. In 1846 after Rev. William McIntyre's defection Purves was appointed to gather the remnant which remained loyal to the church established at East Maitland. With success he built up the congregation which he linked with Largs.
  Handsome and cultivated, Purves became an influential figure in wider church and public affairs. In 1850-70 he was a fellow of the first Senate of the University of Sydney. He also chaired the committee which led to the foundation of St Andrew's College. After a visit to Scotland in 1852 as delegate to the Church of Scotland Assembly he returned in 1854, having helped to recruit ministers for the colony. In 1861 he toured the Clarence and Richmond Rivers districts, where he established churches. An ardent advocate of unifying the Presbyterian Churches in Australia, he had published A Statement of the Merits of the Controversy Between the Church of Scotland and the Free Church of Scotland, With Remarks on Union (1854). In 1866 he became second moderator of the reunited New South Wales General Assembly.
  Despite their friendly relations, Rev. J. D. Lang claimed that Purves used to 'scamper about the colony in his own private and secular business' buying land in the Illawarra and New Zealand, a partnership in a store near Yass and looking after his sheep and cattle in Queensland. He also owned real estate in Sydney and Port Macquarie. On 31 December 1840 he had married Alison Inglis Adams, of Portobello, Scotland; she died on 27 September 1857. On 29 July 1859 he married Lucy (d.1867), daughter of Robert Havens and widow of Thomas Hyndes, of Cheshunt House, Cumberland Place, Sydney.
  Purves resigned his charge on 15 March 1870 and on 14 April sailed in the Patriarch with his daughter, planning a stay in Britain. He died at sea on 26 April, survived by two sons and a daughter by his first wife, to whom he left goods sworn for probate at £17,000. His second son John Mitchell (1847-1915) was a founder of the real estate business, Batt, Rodd & Purves, represented the Clarence in the Legislative Assembly in 1880-87, was mayor of North Sydney, esquire bedell of the University of Sydney and a founder of the Sydney Lancers.
  A memorial is in St Stephen's Church, East Maitland, and a portrait in St Andrew's College.
