George Reid (Australian politician)
Sir George Houstoun Reid, GCB, GCMG, KC was an Australian politician, Premier of New South Wales and the fourth Prime Minister of Australia.
Reid was born in Johnstone, Renfrewshire, Scotland, son of a Church of Scotland minister, and migrated to Victoria with his family in 1852. His family was one of many Presbyterian families brought out from Scotland by Rev Dr John Dunmore Lang, with whom his father worked at Scots Church, Sydney. He was educated at Scotch College, where he said he could read, write and count fairly well, but had a lazy horror of Greek and no appetite for the wide range of metaphysical propositions that formed part of the curriculum.
