John Thompson Hoffman (January 10 1828 – March 24 1888) was the 23rd Governor of New York (1869–72). He was also Recorder of New York City (1861–65) and the 78th Mayor of New York City (1866–68). Connections to the Tweed Ring ruined his political career in spite of the absence of evidence to show personal involvement in corrupt activities.
