Frederick Robert Flatman (1843 – 21 September 1911) was a New Zealand Member of Parliament of the Liberal Party for the Pareora and Geraldine electorates.
Early life
[ edit ]
Flatman was born in Suffolk in 1843[1] Oulton Broad . He came to Lyttelton on the Mary Ann in 1862 and went to South Canterbury. He was a successful businessman, and was storekeeper in Geraldine and Woodbury , and a sawmiller, before he concentrated on farming.[2] [3]
Member of Parliament
[ edit ]
Flatman represented the Pareora and Geraldine electorates for fifteen years (1893–1908) in the New Zealand House of Representatives . He defeated Arthur Rhodes for the Pareora electorate in 1893 by 1594 to 1377 votes.[5] William Nosworthy for the Ashburton electorate in the second ballot .[7]
The Lyttelton Times not of the ornamental type, but plain, blunt, possessing strong convictions, straightforward manners and simple directness of speech. He also acquired in 3 years a surprising grasp and mastery of political questions. He was certainly the best of the South Island farmer members-perhaps the best in New Zealand. He was a fine man ."[8]
Death
[ edit ]
He died on 21 September 1911 at Woodbury near Geraldine .[1] [9]
