John Benedict Hoyt (Jan. 31, 1794-July 4, 1862) was an American minister.

He was son of Thaddeus and Jemima (Benedict) Hoyt formerly of New Canaan, Connecticut, and was born Jan. 31, 1794, in Walton, New York in Delaware County.

He graduated from Yale University in 1814. After graduating, he spent a year in teaching in Dutchess County, New York, and soon after began the study of Theology with Rev. S. Williston, D.

In 1829, he accepted a call to the second Congregational church in Coventry, New York, where he has since resided. He published a volume of Sermons, entitled, A Pastor's Tribute to his People (Norwich, New York, 1851; 12mo pp. 288) and several occasional discourses.

He was twice married, first to Miss Emelme C. Fenn, of Harpersfield, New York, and after her decease, to Miss Eliza Ann Phillips, of Coventry. He was the father of eight children, five of whom survived him. He died in Coventry, Chenango County, New York, July 4, 1862, aged 68 years.
