Ormond Edward Burton (16 January 1893 – 7 January 1974) was a New Zealand-born teacher, soldier, war historian, Christian pacifist, Methodist clergyman, and writer, who was the co-founder (with Archibald Charles Barrington) of the Christian Pacifist Society of New Zealand.[1] Burton was imprisoned several times for his opposition to World War II, and was expelled from the Methodist church.[2]
Burton contested the Eden electorate in the 1928 election under the banner Christian Socialist and came a distant last of the four candidates.[3][4]
