James Mackintosh (18 October 1827 – 9 May 1897) was a 19th-century Liberal Party Member of Parliament in Southland, New Zealand.

Early life

He was born in Lochinver, Sutherlandshire, Scotland, and went to Victoria, Australia as a young man with his father.[1] At Moonee Ponds, he and his brother Murdoch Mackintosh were stock-breeders.[2][3] The 1940 edition of the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography lists him as a representative of East Bourke in the Victoria Legislative Assembly, but this is incorrect and based on a confusion with the similarly named James Macintosh.[4]

Mackintosh married Anne McLean in 1852. Her father owned the Pollio station on the Darling River.[1]

The Mackintoshs moved to New Zealand in 1866, where he was also a runholder.[5] He first bought the Strathmore estate in the Otautau district, and later the Gladfield estate.[2] He retired from farming in 1884 and moved to Invercargill.[2]

From 1880 until shortly before his death, Mackintosh was a member of the Southland Education Board. He set up the Aparima road board.[9] While obituaries in The Evening Post (Wellington) and The Star (Christchurch) mention his membership of the Southland Provincial Council,[3][9] his name does not appear on the council's roll compiled by Guy Scholefield in his 1950 edition of the New Zealand Parliamentary Record, 1840–1949.[6] For a time, he was chairman of the Wallace County Council.[3]

Mackintosh stood in the {{NZ election link|1887}} in the {{NZ electorate link|Mataura}} electorate and was beaten by the incumbent, George Richardson.[1][7] He represented the Wallace electorate from the {{NZ election link|1890}} for two parliamentary terms.[8]

He was an advocate of cheap government loans for settlers.[5] In the {{NZ election link|1896}}, the Wallace electorate was contested by five candidates, and Mackintosh came last.[9]

Death

Annie Mackintosh died on 11 May 1880 in Invercargill.[10] Mackintosh died on 9 May 1897, aged 69.[3] He left seven sons and four daughters.[11]
