Lindley Murray Hoag (September 29, 1808 – November 1880) was a Quaker missionary and minister.
[1] Hoag is known for purportedly having had a vision of a place by a lake in Norway.

He also travelled extensively in other areas of the U.S. and to Europe on missionary trips.
He had at least four children, Hannah H. Liggett, who was active in the temperance movement; Joseph Lindley Hoag who was a druggist; Zeno K. Hoag; and a son who reportedly died at sea in his teens.
