He was born in Berthier, Lower Canada in 1826, the son of James Cuthbert and Mary-Louise Amable Cairns,[1] and was educated at Chambly College. He served as mayor of Berthier from 1868 to 1873 and from 1877 to 1878. Cuthbert was also president of the County Agricultural Society.[2] He ran unsuccessfully for a seat in the Quebec assembly in 1867.[1] He was elected to the House of Commons in an 1875 by-election held after the sitting member was named to the Senate.
