Personal Notes:
The Tumut and Adelong Times 10 Sep 1929
THE LATE Mr. JOHN ARCHER BROUGHTON Yet another link with the early history of the Tumut district was snapped when Mr. John Archer Broughton, of 'The Grange,' passed away at the Tumut and District Hospital on Wednesday night last, at the age of 70 years, after a few weeks' illness, senility being the cause of death. Deceased was the second son of the late Robert K. Broughton, whose father was Commissioner Broughton, associated with early colonial Governmental affairs. He was born at Gadara in 1859, and was educated at Yass. His father owned Gadara Estate, comprising 5000 acres. On the death of his father in 1876, at the age of 55 years, the subject of this obituary became manager of the Estate, which was then noted for its celebrated breed of Shorthorn. He remained in charge of the Estate until his mother died in 1898, and in 1900, when the division of the Estate took place, his brother, Mr. Jas Brouhton, acquired the old homestead property, which he still retains. Mr. Archer Bronghton held the residue of the estate, excepting that part held by Mr. R. K. Broughton, his brother, leasing it to farmers and graziers for a number of years, and in 1920 sold a portion of it to Messrs Burbury Bros., returned soldiers, the estate then being reduced to 2700 acres. In 1908 he purchased the fine property and stately home, ''The Grange,' fronting Gilmore Creek, on Gocup road, from Mr. Fred. Allsopp, of Murrumbidgee. Flourmill ilk, and, never marrying, there he resided with his two sisters, Misses Emma C. and Emily B. Broughton, until his demise. His passing removes a familiar figure and one of the most gentlemanly and esteemed of our citizens. He played a prominent part for years in public affairs, as a committeeman of the A. and P Association and Turf Club, and was closely associated with all bodies connected with local activities relating to the Great War, and the future welfare of our returned men; and, as a mark of respect and appreciation of his valued services and help, a number of the latter marched beside the coffin to the cemetery in the funeral cortege. His support, was also accorded to tennis and cricket and other sports movements, to which he lent his patronage as well. Our hospital likewise received his constant support since its inception . Kind and considerate in all his thoughts, speech and dealings, though modest in assertiveness, he won the esteem of all with whom he came in contact, his urbane, gentlemanly manner being particularly appealing. He gave liberally to every just cause. There are left behind to mourn the loss of a loving brother, Mrs. W. C. Webb (Holbrook) and the two sisters at 'The Grange,' and Messrs Robert K. and James (Gadara). Mrs. W. Manning, Mrs Henry Sharp and Mrs. Bland Clayton (three sisters) predeceased him. The funeral took place on Friday, the remains being interred alongside those of his late father and mother in the Old Cemetery. Rev. F. W. Rettie officiating at the grave and Messrs Fuller and Burt attending to the mortuary arrangements. The bearers of the coffin (which was strewn with wreaths) were Messrs Archie C. Macadam, Verne Harris, T. and D. Burbury, Frank Webb and Robt C. Stevenson, all returned soldiers.
