}}Henry Turner (10 November 1844 – 9 August 1932) was a member of both the member of both the Queensland Legislative Council and the Queensland Legislative Assembly.[1]

Early life

Turner was born in November 1844 at Aynho, Northamptonshire, to Thomas Turner and his wife Leah (née Fathers).[1] Upon arriving in Rockhampton he worked at the local Meatworks for many years where he began to take an active interest in the labour movement.[2]

Political career

Upon the resignation of James Stewart to stand for a senate seat in the 1901 federal election,[3] Turner, representing the Labour Party, contested the subsequent by-election in June of that year and defeated the Ministerial candidate, John Linnett.[4] The election outcome was successfully challenged in the courts by Linnett and he was declared duly elected.[5]

Turner once again won the seat at the 1902 state election[6] and remained the sitting member till his resignation in May 1907. Two months later, Premier William Kidston appointed Turner to the Legislative Council,[7] staying there until the Council was abolished in March 1922.[1]

Personal life

Turner married Louisa Brown[1] (d.1893)[8] and together had 5 children.[1] He subsequently married Ida Martha Ridgewell (b. 29 March 1879; d. 1965) and they had two children, Gwendoline Ida (1911-1975) and Geoffrey Ridgewell (1918-1998).

Henry died in Brisbane in 1932 and was buried in Toowong Cemetery.[9]
