He joined the gold rush in Ballarat, but returned to his watchmakers shop in Geelong.

[2] He represented the Invercargill electorate in Parliament from 1875 to 1878, when he resigned,[3] as absence from his jewellery shop was affecting his business.

Their son Thomas James Lumsden was born in 1854.
