Joseph Gilbert (1800-1881) was a pastoralist and vigneron in South Australia from 1839 until his death.[1]
Gilbert was born in Puckshipton, Wiltshire, England, in the Vale of Pewsey. The second of four sons, his father was Joseph Gilbert and his moth, Jane (née Pike). He studied at Marlborough College in Wiltshire and learnt about vine-growing and wine-making on the European mainland.[1]
His name was given to the suburb of Gilberton, South Australia, Gilbert Valley in the District Council of Clare and Gilbert Valleys and Gilbert Street, Adelaide.
He was buried at his winery, Pewsey Vale in South Australia's Eden Valley.[1]
