Robert Edward Hornblow (14 June 1861 – 21 October 1937) was a New Zealand politician, auctioneer, reporter and newspaper proprietor.

Business career

Hornblow was born in Wellington in 1861, the son of Charles William Hornblow.[1] He grew up in Greytown in the Wairarapa.[2] He received little education and started work from the age of ten.[3] He was an apprentice at the Greytown Standard for six years and in 1882, he worked as a compositor for the New Zealand Times in Wellington. He returned to Greytown and worked at the Greytown Standard as a reporter. This was followed by a short period of the Greytown representative for the New Zealand Times, and four years each at the Wairarapa Star and the Wairarapa Daily. He started his own printing business in 1891 in Masterton and sold it in 1894. He then became an auctioneer and land agent.[3]

In later life, he owned newspapers in Mangaweka, Dargaville, Whangarei, Rawene, and Kohukohu.[5]

Political career

Hornblow stood for the New Zealand House of Representatives several times during his life. In the {{NZ election link|1902}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Rangitikei}} electorate and of the five candidates, he came fourth.[4] In the {{NZ election link|1905}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Oroua}} electorate and of the three candidates, he came last.[5] He once more contested the Oroua electorate in the subsequent election in {{NZ election link year|1908}} and of the three candidates, he came last in the first ballot and was thus eliminated from the second round of voting.[6] In the 1909 Rangitikei by-election, he came last of the five candidates in the first ballot.[7] In the {{NZ election link|1911}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Oroua}} electorate but was beaten by David Guthrie.[8] In the {{NZ election link|1914}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Rangitikei}} electorate but was beaten by Edward Newman.[9] In the {{NZ election link|1919}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Eden}} electorate and of the three candidates, he came last. In the {{NZ election link|1922}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Kaipara}} electorate and was beaten by Gordon Coates. In the {{NZ election link|1925}}, he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Bay of Islands}} electorate and of the five candidates, he came last. He again stood in the Bay of Islands electorate in {{NZ election link year|1925}} and of the three candidates, he came a distant last. In the {{NZ election link|1935}} he stood for the Bay of Islands electorate again against Harold Rushworth as an Independent Labour candidate, placing third out of four candidates.[10]

Hornblow was mayor of Dargaville from 1919 to 1925.[11]

Private life

On 21 February 1889 at Greytown, he married Emily Sarah Perry of Masterton.[12] They had a son and a daughter, and divorced in December 1906.[13] His first wife remarried in Nelson the following year.[14]
