Percy Clifton Edwards was an Australian politician. He was the Mayor of Kew between 1928 and 1929.[1] He was also the Councillor of Prospect Ward, a council in the City of Kew in several years.
The earliest he was documented as a Councillor was in a photograph (1922–1924) of several Kew Councillors, including eight who were at some point Mayor of Kew.[2]
In 1924, he stood for Councillor of Prospect Ward, opposed by Michael J. Drohan.[3]
He is known to have been Councillor of Prospect Ward between 1932 and 1934.[4] He was still Councillor in 1936, where he was nominated along with Joseph Thomas Gazzard.[5]
It is likely that he was Councillor of Prospect Ward consistently in the 1920s and 1930s.
