John Suttor

For his grandfather, a politician of the same name, see John Bligh Suttor.

John Bligh Suttor (23 September 1883 – 11 September 1960) was an Australian politician.

He was born in Waverley to pastoralist and businessman John Bligh Suttor (the son of politician John Bligh Suttor) and Emma Isabel Hunt. He attended Sydney High School and became an electrical engineer, also owning land near Bathurst. On 19 September 1908 he married Madeline Constance Nash, with whom he had one son. He was appointed to the New South Wales Legislative Council in 1921 as a Labor Party nominee, although there were allegations that he was not a true member of the party at the time. He served until 1934, when the Council was reconstituted. Suttor died at Wahroonga in 1960.[1]
