Biography{{NZ parlbox header|nolist=true|align=left}}{{NZ parlbox|start = {{NZ election link year|1890}} |end = 1893 |term = 11th |electorate = {{NZ electorate link|Napier}} |party = Conservative (New Zealand) }}{{NZ parlbox footer}} Born in Sunderland, England, Swan went to Australia in 1854 and settled in New Zealand in 1857. Swan served as the Mayor of Napier from 1885 to 1901; at that time, he held the record for holding the longest continuous mayoralty in New Zealand.[1] He represented the Napier electorate from {{NZ election link year|1890}} to 1893, concurrently as Mayor, when he was defeated.[2] Though sometimes described as "Independent", he was really a "conservative"; although those opposed to the Liberals had not yet formed the Reform Party. He was opposed to party government, and wanted Maori and local shipping to pay taxes.[3] Swan owned his own brewery. He was initially a photographer by trade.[1] He died in Whanganui on 25 July 1913.[4][5] He married an actress, Frances Stopher in 1884. She died in Whanganui in 1939.[6] References1. ^1 {{cite book|title=The Cyclopedia of New Zealand: Taranaki, Hawke’s Bay & Wellington Provincial Districts|year=1908 |publisher=Cyclopedia Company Limited |page =303|url= http://www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/tei-Cyc06Cycl-t1-body1-d2-d3-d4.html#name-417413-mention |location=Christchurch}} {{s-start}}{{S-par | nz}}{{s-bef | before = John Davies Ormond}}{{s-ttl | title = Member of Parliament for Napier|years=1890–1893}}{{s-aft| after = Samuel Carnell }}{{end}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Swan, George}}{{NewZealand-mayor-stub}}2. ^{{cite book |last= Wilson |first= James Oakley |title= New Zealand Parliamentary Record, 1840–1984 |edition= 4th |origyear= First ed. published 1913 |year= 1985 |publisher= V.R.
