John Ballou Newbrough (born in Springfield, Ohio, June 5, 1828; died in 1891) wrote several books of religious philosophy from the 1880s until his death, most notably "Oahspe" published in 1882. He was a dentist in New York City who became interested in Spiritualism. He claimed that Oahspe was a product of automatic writing, and that when the book was written he had acted a mere vessel to transmit divine force.
