Henry Redwood (24 January 1823 – 9 November 1907) was a New Zealand farmer, politician and racehorse breeder. He was born in Tixall, Staffordshire, England in 1823.[1] He was a brother of Francis Redwood, a brother in law of Joseph Ward,[2][3] and an uncle of Vernon Redwood.[4][5] He lived at Stafford Place in Appleby near Richmond.[6] He was a member of the Nelson Provincial Council from 1863 and of the Marlborough Provincial Council from 1868.[1] He contested the 1871 election in the Wairau electorate against the incumbent, William Henry Eyes, but received just 38% of the votes and was thus unsuccessful.[7][8]
