Alf Morgans
Alfred Edward Morgans (17 February 1850 – 10 August 1933) was Premier of Western Australia for just 32 days, from 21 November to 23 December 1901.
==Early life and career==
Alf Morgans was born at Ochr Chwith Machen Lower, Machen, Monmouthshire in Wales (UK) on 17 February 1850. He was educated at private schools and subsequently attended the Welsh School of Mines. After completing his studies, he was apprenticed to a mechanical engineering firm at Ebbw Vale.
On 19 March 1872, he married Fanny Ridler at Gloucester in England. In 1878, Morgans' employers sent him to Mexico to supervise their gold and silver mines. He worked in Central America for a period of 18 years, during which time he learned to speak Spanish fluently, and developed an interest in Mexico's natural and archaeological history. He unearthed a number of Aztec pieces, some of which he donated to the British Museum.
Morgans moved to Western Australia in 1896 as a representative of Morgans' Syndicate Ltd. to inspect mining properties for London-based investors seeking sound investment opportunities. He acquired numerous properties and mining interests throughout the state, including Westralia Mount Morgans, and he was generally considered to be a leading authority on mining investment.
