William Quin (c. 1836 – 13 November 1880) was a plasterer and politician in the colony of South Australia, regarded as the first "worker" to hold such a position. William Quin was a plasterer with the firm of Webber & Quin of Queenstown in 1857, occasional writer of letters to the editor and well known and respected around the Port, though not so in Wallaroo which, curiously, was then part of the electoral district of Port Adelaide. He was a leading member of Oddfellows. rdf:langString
