William H. Spinks

William Hooey Spinks (July 23, 1873[1] – May 25, 1949[2]) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada.

He worked as a farmer, and was the reeve of the Rural Municipality of South Norfolk in Manitoba[3] for thirteen years.

Spinks was a member of the Grain Growers' Association, was president of the Agricultural Society for eight years, and was a freemason and Orangeman.

He was again successful in the 1922 election,[1] defeating John Young of the United Farmers of Manitoba by 47 votes as the Conservatives fell to seven seats across the province.

The Conservative Party recovered to fifteen seats in the 1927 election, as Spinks defeated[1] Progressive candidate Andrew Moore by 144 votes.
