Pitcairn Island politician
Ivan Roa Christian (31 May 1919 – 1991) was a politician from Pitcairn.

He is related to a number of other island leaders, including his father Richard Edgar Christian, his uncle Charles Richard Parkin Christian and his great-grandfather Thursday October Christian II. Through his marriage to Verna Young, he is the father of Steve Christian and Brenda Christian.
