text: William Postlethwaite was an English-born Member of Parliament representing the Canterbury region of New Zealand. Postlethwaite was born in Broughton, Lancashire, the son of Robert and Agnes Postlethwaite. He was tutored by Branwell Brontë, brother to the Brontë sisters. He married Annie Camilla Brisco, daughter of Sir Robert Brisco, 3rd Baronet, in 1859. He succeeded to his uncle's Oaks estate in Millom, Cumberland, but in an unusual move for landed gentry, moved to New Zealand in 1878. Postlet
