Nash was born in 1871 in Foxton to Ann Ellen Webster and Norman Nash.[1]

He won the Palmerston electorate (since renamed the Palmerston North electorate) in the 1918 Palmerston by-election after the death of David Buick, and held it to 1935, when he was defeated by the Labour candidate, Joe Hodgens in a three-person contest involving the town's mayor, Gus Mansford.[2] He was Chairman of Committees in 1935.[3] He contested the Template:NZ election link in the Template:NZ electorate link for the National Party, but was again defeated by Hodgens.[4]

In 1935, Nash was awarded the King George V Silver Jubilee Medal.[5] He was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire for public and municipal services in the 1951 New Year Honours.[6] Nash was a prominent Freemason and was appointed past grand master of Lodge Kilwinning, Manawatu, in 1946.[1]

He died at his home in Palmerston North on 24 July 1952,[1] and was buried in Terrace End Cemetery.[7]
