Badgery was born at Sutton Forest, New South Wales, and married, in 1869, Julia, daughter of G. M. Pitt, of Sydney.[2] He was member for East Maitland in the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales from 5 June 1878 to 9 November 1880,[3] and was afterwards twice elected for Monaro, serving from 2 December 1880 to 7 October 1885.[3] Having joined the Dibbs Ministry as Secretary for Public Works, on 7 October 1885, he was defeated at Camden 12 days later and resigned office on the 31st of the same month.[2]

Following the death of his first wife in 1894 at age 52,[4] Badgery married a second time to Alice May King in 1896[5] who died late that year aged 38.[6] He then married a third time in 1900 to Sybella Louisa, née Hooke.[7] Badgery had six children, four sons and two daughters, in his first marriage and three children, two sons and a daughter, by his third marriage.[1]

His brother, Frank Badgery, served in the Legislative Assembly from 1913 to 1915.[8]
