James Pascoe (1863[1] – 1931[2]) was a British-born farmer and political figure in Saskatchewan. He represented Moose Jaw City in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan from 1921 to 1925 as an independent Conservative. He was born in Cornwall, the son of John Pascoe and Marjorie Wills, and came to Canada around 1870. The family first settled in North Dorchester, Ontario; in 1892, his parents moved to a homestead near Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan where they spent the rest of their lives. Pascoe acquired his own homestead near Regina around 1883. After four years, he moved to Michigan and then back to Ontario; during this time, he was involved in the lumber business. Pascoe married Mary Olton in 1887. In 1891, he travelled west again, settling on his own homestead near Moose Jaw. He served as chairman of the Local Improvement District surrounding Moose Jaw and then, after he moved his residence to Moose Jaw, as a member of Moose Jaw City Council. Pascoe was mayor of Moose Jaw from 1913 to 1915.[1] He was defeated when he ran for reelection to the provincial assembly in 1925 as a Conservative.[2] Pascoe served as mayor of Moose Jaw again from 1929 until his death in 1931.[3] He died at the age of 68 of a heart attack in a Moose Jaw suburb while attempting to shovel away sand that had been blown around his car by the wind.[4] His son James Ernest was also a Moose Jaw mayor and served in the Canadian House of Commons.[5] Electoral results (partial){{Saskatchewan provincial election, 1925/Moose Jaw City}}References1. ^1 {{cite book |url=http://www.ourroots.ca/page.aspx?id=164944 |title=The story of Saskatchewan and its people |volume=Volume 2 |last=Hawkes |first=John |pages=1261–3 |year=1924 |accessdate=2012-04-02}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Pascoe, James}}{{Saskatchewan-politician-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.saskarchives.com/sites/default/files/documents/Elections-Results-by-Electoral-Division.pdf |title=Saskatchewan Election Results By Electoral Division |publisher=Saskatchewan Archives Board |accessdate=2012-03-27 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131112235500/http://www.saskarchives.com/sites/default/files/documents/Elections-Results-by-Electoral-Division.pdf |archivedate=2013-11-12 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.moosejaw.ca/?service=moose-jaw-mayors |title=Moose Jaw Mayors |publisher=City of Moose Jaw |accessdate=2012-04-02}} 4. ^1 {{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3MDXtHm0nYcC&pg=PA97 |title=Moose Jaw: people, places, history |page=97 |last=Larsen |first=John |author2=Libby, Maurice Richard |ISBN=1550501631 |year=2001 |publisher=Coteau Books |accessdate=2012-04-02}} 5. ^{{cite book |url=http://www.ourroots.ca/page.aspx?id=4092479 |title=From Buffalo trails to blacktop : a history of the R.M. of Caron #162 |page=309 |year=1982 |author=Caron History Book Committee |accessdate=2012-04-02}} 7 : Members of the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan|1863 births|1931 deaths|Mayors of Moose Jaw|Canadian Methodists|Cornish emigrants to Canada|Cornish farmers |
