John Wickham (June 6, 1763 – January 22, 1839) was an American Loyalist, attorney and slaveholder. One of very few Loyalists to achieve any sort of national prominence in the United States after the American Revolution, Wickham may be best remembered for his role defending former Vice President Aaron Burr who was accused of treason but acquitted in 1807.
