Lewis Lloyd (politician)

Lewis Lloyd (27 September 1842 – 12 February 1902) was a Welsh-born Australian mining entrepreneur and politician.

[7] He was said to have had, at one time, 38 reverberatory smelting furnaces—of his own distinctive design—in operation in various parts of New South Wales,[8] including at Currawang.

He was also involved in other copper mines in the Central West of New South Wales, at Cow Flat, Coombing Park, and Ophir.

[3] His political career was undistinguished; a quiet man by nature, who did not like speaking in public, he was described as an "exemplary silent member".

[3] During the time that he was the sole proprietor of the Burraga mine, he lived at 'Glendower', a two-storey house of sixteen rooms, on Vale Road—now Lloyds Road—South Bathurst.
