John Conness (September 22, 1821 – January 10, 1909) was a first-generation Irish-American businessman who served as a U.S. Senator (1863–1869) from California during the American Civil War and the early years of Reconstruction.
He introduced a bill to establish Yosemite National Park and voted to abolish slavery.
His advocacy of Chinese immigration and civil rights cost him his constituency.
