Joseph Penzer (1833 – 26 September 1905) was an English-born Australian politician.
He was born in Birmingham in 1833, a farmer's son.[1] He arrived in New South Wales around 1854,[2] and settled in Grafton, where he kept a store. He moved to the Dubbo region in 1862, where he was a pastoralist. He was appointed a magistrate in 1864.[1]
On 14 April 1879 he married Jane Rebecca Booth, the sister of Robert Booth, with whom he had two sons, Walter and Robert.[1]
In 1887 he was elected to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly as a Free Trade member for Bogan. He did not re-contest in 1889.[3]
Penzer died at Yarrandale near Dubbo in 1905 (aged 72).[4][1][a]
