John Sheridan Hogan

John Sheridan Hogan (ca 1815 – December 1, 1859) was a journalist, lawyer and political figure in Canada West.

He ran away and found work in Hamilton with the Canadian Wesleyan, a newspaper published in the early 1830s.

He began working as a parliamentary correspondent for several journals, including Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine around 1849.

He also worked with Samuel Thompson on the United Empire and the Daily Colonist, two journals published in Toronto.

It was later determined that he had been murdered on December 1 by a gang of local robbers after refusing to give them money.
