| 释义 |
He was born in Parkhill, Ontario, the son of John W. Ridley and Elisabeth Boyd. Ridley was first employed in farming and later entered the farm implement business, partnering with his brother in Manitou. He played with the Manitou Lacrosse Club, who were provincial champions in 1904. He was a member of the United Church. Ridley married Sarah E. Kealey.[2] Ridley was elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1920 provincial election, defeating Farmer candidate George Compton[1] by 259 votes in the constituency of Manitou. Incumbent Liberal George Armstrong finished third. The Liberal Party won a minority government in this election, and Ridley served with his party in opposition. He ran for re-election in the 1922 provincial election, and narrowly lost to George Compton in a rematch from two years earlier. Compton was by this time a candidate of the United Farmers of Manitoba.[1] His son Maurice also served in the Manitoba assembly.[3] He died in Manitou in 1934.[4] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html#R0 |title=MLA Biographies - Deceased |work=Legislative Assembly of Manitoba |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140330155427/http://www.gov.mb.ca/hansard/members/mla_bio_deceased.html |archivedate=2014-03-30 |df= }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Ridley, John S.}}2. ^1 {{cite book |url=http://www.ourroots.ca/page.aspx?id=4028407 |title=Pioneers and prominent people in Manitoba |pages=283–84 |year=1925 |last=McCrea |first=Walter Jackson |accessdate=2012-12-26}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/ridley_js.shtml |work=Memorable Manitobans |title=John Sutherland Ridley (1882-?) |publisher=Manitoba Historical Society. |accessdate=2012-12-26}}| 4. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://vitalstats.gov.mb.ca/Query.php |title=Genealogy Searches for Unrestricted Records |publisher=Government of Manitoba |at=Registration number 1934-020325 |accessdate=2012-12-26}} 4 : Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba MLAs|People from Manitou, Manitoba|1882 births|1934 deaths |
