Richard Bowen Colley (13 December 1819 – 28 May 1875) was the first mayor of Glenelg, South Australia.
Colley was born in London and visited South Australia in the 1830s, then emigrated with his family on the Competitor, arriving in October 1847.[1]
He lived for a time in North Adelaide, then moved to St. Leonards (now Glenelg North) some time before 1864, and was a regular worshipper at St. Peter's Church, Glenelg; his house was later bought by William Rounsevell, and it was there ("Tremere") that Lady Daly died.
He was a member of the Volunteer Reserve, serving as a Lieutenant under H. R. Wigley.
He was an agent for the European Life Assurance Society and Secretary of the Kadina and Wallaroo Railway Company.
He served a City Auditor, Government liquidator, Justice of the Peace, and Returning Officer for the Assembly seat of West Torrens.
He was for a time owner of Section 4014, Hundred of Onkaparinga, known as Gilleston, adjoining Balhannah, and later incorporated into that town.
He suffered ill health and with his wife returned to England on the Orient in 1876 in the hope of finding a cure, but died the following year at Park Place, Regent's Park, London.
