Edward Shaw was a 19th-century member of the New Zealand Parliament.
Shaw was originally an English barrister. He worked at Bishop's school in Nelson.[1] From there, he went to the Inangahua area of the Buller District on the West Coast as a resident warden and magistrate in Inangahua Junction, Reefton and Westport.[2][3]
He represented the Inangahua electorate from 1883 to 1884, following the resignation of Thomas S. Weston.[4] After retiring in 1884, he later became a district judge.[2]
