Thomas Burges (July 1830 – 7 August 1893) was an Australian pastoralist and politician who was a member of the Legislative Council of Western Australia on three occasions – from 1874 to 1878, from 1885 to 1887, and from 1890 until his death.
In 1870, he developed Yuin Station, subsequently helping to open a stock route north to the Gascoyne.
[1] In 1874, Burges was elected to the Legislative Council, representing the newly created Northern District.
[2] Burges returned to parliament in July 1885, when he was appointed to the Legislative Council by the governor, Sir Frederick Broome.
He resigned in June 1887, but was re-appointed in December 1890, following the council's reconstitution as an upper house (rather than a unicameral chamber).
