He received his early education in a private school, and afterwards studied for two years at the London University. Subsequently he was engaged in tuition, and at the age of seventeen entered the office of Mr. B. New and Son, architects and surveyors, London. He was in the field from 1856 to 1858 until he collapse of the rail way-construction excitement, when he fell back upon tuition and became second Master of Dover House School, in the Old Kent-road. About this time he was made a member of the College of Proceptors. He left England on November 13, 1849, in the Rajah for the colonies, arriving in Adelaide on April 12, 1850. He was first engaged by Mr. Chauncy, who had the contract; for the survey of the line of railway from Port Adelaide to the Burra. Mr. Wadham prepared plans of this railway and also designs for the bridges, which were favourably commented on by the Press of the day. Subsequently he was engaged as surveyor by Mr. George Green, then a leading land agent. He joined the exodus to the Victorian Diggings, but returned to Adelaide after a brief absence. He was engaged largely in gold buying under Mr. Green for the Bank of South Australia, and was shortly afterwards taken into partnership. The partnership was dissolved by effluxion of time in 1869, and Mr. Wadham entered into business on his own account as land agent and auctioneer. He held a licence for over thirty years, and conducted some of the largest private surveys and most successful estate sales in South Australia. In 1885 Mr. Wadham was returned as a member of the Legislative Council for the Northern District, and Gas until July, 1688, when he resigned.
