Sir Robert Andrews Mackenzie Douglas, 3rd Baronet (19 July 1837 – 28 February 1884) was a Member of Parliament from Northland, New Zealand.
==Biography==
He was educated at first in Jersey, completing his studies in Hampshire. He was gazetted into the 57th Regiment in 1854 and very quickly was on active service in the Crimean War. He was present at the storming of Sebastopol, and the capture of Kinburn, receiving the Crimean medal and clasp, and the Turkish War medal. He next served against the Arabs at Aden, and was present at the capture at Sheikothman. He then took part in the suppression of the Indian mutiny. The 57th were afterwards dispatched to New Zealand, and Sir Robert served in the campaign on this Coast, being present at various skirmishes, and at Nukumaru, receiving the honour of mention in general orders. For ten years he commanded a company of the old 'Die Hards', finally retiring by sale of commission, and settling in the colony where he had married.
From 1873 to the abolition in 1876, he was member of the Auckland Provincial Council for the Whangarei electorate. He represented the Marsden electorate from 1876 until his retirement in 1879.
