Alick J. Murray

Alexander James "Alick" Murray (ca.1850 – 18 April 1929) was a pastoralist and sheep breeder of South Australia.

[3] Alick continued his father's work at Mount Crawford Estate: his proudest distinction was the winning of the champion ribbon for merino ewe at the Adelaide Royal Show eight times and seven years in succession from 1897.

Around 1919 Mount Crawford Estate was compulsorily acquired by the Government for the creation of the Warren Reservoir, and Murray retired from pastoral pursuits to his home "The Avenues" at Medindie.

[4] The Mount Crawford polo team, which consisted of Alick, his sons Cyril and Eric, nephew Elliott Murray, and son-in-law Ronald Angas was highly successful.

[1] Alick was the third son of John Murray (c. 1812 – 13 September 1886) and Alison (c. 1820 – 9 June 1895) who arrived in South Australia from Scotland in 1853.
