Robert Ewing (mayor)

Robert Ewing (mayor)

Robert Ewing (August 10, 1849–October 23, 1932) was the mayor of Nashville, Tennessee from 1915 to 1917.

Robert Ewing was born in Nashville, Tennessee. He was married on March 28, 1876 to Harriet Hoyt in the First Presbyterian Church. The Ewings had thirteen children.

On July 27, 1915 the City of Nashville was placed in receivership by Chancellor John Allison. As a result of this, mayor Hilary Ewing Howse and several of the commissioners were removed from office.

Later that year Ewing ran as a Democrat and won election as mayor. He was the last mayor to serve a two year term as the term was extended to four years in 1917.

He died on October 23, 1932 in Nashville and is buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery.
