John Samuel Benham (born October 24, 1863) was a Republican politician who represented Indiana in the United States House of Representatives in the early twentieth century. Serving as a member of Congress from Indiana’s 4th Congressional District, he held office as a U.S. Representative during a period of post–World War I adjustment and domestic political change.
Benham began his congressional service on May 19, 1919, and served until March 3, 1923. Over the course of two terms in the House of Representatives, he was part of the Republican Party’s majority in Congress. While specific committee assignments and legislative initiatives are not listed in the available record, his tenure placed him among the historical members of Congress who helped shape national policy in the immediate postwar years.
After leaving office in 1923, John Samuel Benham was no longer in public office at the federal level, and he is recorded as a former representative. Further details about his later life, professional activities outside Congress, and date of death are not provided in the available metadata.
