Richard Harman Jeffares Reeves (1836 – 1 June 1910) was a New Zealand politician of the Liberal Party.

He worked in various trades, including mining, store keeping, cattle dealing and auctioneering.

[1] Whilst absent on a visit to Australia in 1866, he was elected member for the Hokitika electorate in the Canterbury Provincial Council, but resigned on his return to New Zealand, as he found that pressure of business prevented him from taking his seat.

[2] When the West Coast was separated from Canterbury, Reeves was elected onto the Westland County for the Hokitika riding (May 1869 – June 1870).

[4] He represented the Grey Valley electorate in Parliament from an 1878 by-election, caused by the resignation of Martin Kennedy,[1] to 1881.
