Hugh Cameron McMinn (1865 – 2 December 1941) was a member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly in Australia.[1]

Biography

McMinn was born in Callander, Perthshire, the son of James McMinn and his wife Agnes (née Cameron). He arrived in Australia when he was about 16[2] and worked as a storekeeper. After his time in parliament he was an inspector of playgrounds for the education department.[1]

On 11 May 1892 he married Margaret Jane Catherwood[1] in Brisbane, and together they had a son and two daughters. McMinn died in December 1941[1] and was cremated at the Mt Thompson Crematorium.[3] Catherwood died in 1944.[4]

Public career

After unsuccessfully contesting the state election in 1912,[5] McMinn, for the Labor Party, won the seat of Bulimba at the 1915 Queensland state election. In doing so, he defeated the Queensland Treasurer, Walter Barnes.[6] McMinn only lasted one term in the parliament and lost his seat back to Barnes at the 1918 Queensland state election.[7]
