Born in Chatham, Kent, England, Tucker emigrated to Canada with his father at an early age. He was for twenty years the chief surveyor for Lloyds in the East, and resided at Shanghai. He was a Lieutenant-Colonel with the 62nd Battalion, Saint John Fusiliers. He was elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the New Brunswick electoral district of City and County of St. John in the 1896 federal election. A Liberal, he was re-elected in 1900.
