Charles Myles

Charles Hegan Myles (30 December 1837 – 23 February 1903) was a politician in the British colony of South Australia.

Charles was born the youngest son of Samuel Myles MD (c. 1797 – 3 February 1866) and his second wife Eliza, née Hegan (c. 1807 – 17 February 1861), who emigrated with their families on the Sir Charles Forbes to South Australia, arriving in June 1839, and settled at Morphett Vale.

He was elected to the seat of Noarlunga in the South Australian House of Assembly and served from December 1871 to February 1875,[1] succeeding James Stewart as a colleague of John Carr.

He served as Electoral Registrar until forced by illness to resign, a few weeks before his death.

He was Chairman of the local council for several years, and helped found the Morphett Vale Institute.
