William Wallace Snodgrass

SNODGRASS, WILLIAM WALLACE (1870-1939), who was born in Liverpool, arrived in New Zealand in 1880 with his parents, who settled in Nelson. On leaving school he joined his father's firm, R.

During the war of 1914-18 he was closely associated with Nelson patriotic societies. (M.B.E., 1919.) He was also a president of the chamber of commerce and a trustee of St Andrew's orphanage and of the Methodist Church. From 1921 until his death (on 20 Mar 1939) Snodgrass was a member of the Legislative Council. In 1894 he married Annie, daughter of Walter Frankham.
