Harry Allwright

Harry Allwright (1836/37 – 18 July 1892) was a 19th-century Member of Parliament in Canterbury, New Zealand.

Allwright arrived in Lyttelton on the Cressy on 27 December 1850. He was thus one of the Canterbury Pilgrims.

In 1879, he successfully contested the Lyttelton electorate against the incumbent Hugh Murray-Aynsley. He represented Lyttelton until 1887 when he was defeated by John Joyce.

He died on 18 July 1892 in 277 Armagh Street, Christchurch Central City, after having been ill for several months, aged 55.
