Thomas Bridson Cribb

Thomas Bridson Cribb (1 December 1845 – 4 September 1913) was a politician in Queensland, Australia.

[6] As a Ministerialist, Cribb represented the electoral district of Ipswich in the Queensland Legislative Assembly from 21 March 1896, holding the seat through the 1899 and 1902 elections.

The tax was very unpopular, leading to Cribb being defeated in the 1904 election on 27 August by Labor candidate William Ryott Maughan.

[1] Cribb was re-appointed to the Queensland Legislative Council on 14 June 1913, but he was already suffering ill-health and died 3 months later on 4 September 1913.

[6] Cribb died on 4 September 1913 at his residence at Southport, Queensland, following an illness of some duration.
