Evan Davies (Western Australian politician)

Evan Morris Davies (22 June 1892 – 10 April 1963) was an Australian trade unionist and politician who was a Labor Party member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia from 1947 until his death, representing West Province.

He moved to Western Australia as a small child, and after leaving school began working for Western Australian Government Railways.

Davies enlisted in the Australian Army in August 1917, and served in France with the 16th Battalion.

Davies became president of the Fremantle branch of the Locomotive Drivers, Firemen and Cleaners' Union, and in 1928 was elected to the Fremantle City Council, where he would serve for the rest of his life (including as deputy mayor for a period).

He entered parliament at a 1947 Legislative Council by-election, caused by the resignation of William Kitson.
