- Edward Hazzard East, also known as E. H. East, served as Secretary of State for the U.S. state of Tennessee from 1862-1865, having been appointed by Andrew Johnson, the military governor of the state under Union occupation during the American Civil War. After Johnson was inaugurated as Vice-President of the United States on March 4, 1865, East became the Acting Governor of Tennessee until William G. Brownlow, the "elected" governor of Tennessee, was inaugurated on April 5, 1865. The official Tennessee Blue Book does not recognize East's governorship and does not include East in its official list of former governors. This is one of several reasons why the number of Tennessee governors given is in conflict from one reference work to another. East graduated from the Lebanon Law School in 1854. He was a Whig, following the model of Henry Clay. He opposed secession. After the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson became U.S. President and summoned East to Washington, D.C. and offered Judge East "any position then open, all of which he declined. " East was an eminent jurist, having argued cases before the United States Supreme Court and a noted orator, both before and after the Civil War. Judge East was one of the five original members of the Board of Trust of Vanderbilt University. East is interred at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee.
- エドワード・ハザード・イースト、 (Edward Hazzard East) 、あるいはE・H・イースト(1830年10月1日 - 1904年11月12日)は、南北戦争中北軍の占領下にあったテネシー州を治める軍政長官アンドルー・ジョンソンによって同州の州務長官に指名され、1862年から1865年まで務めた。ジョンソンが1865年3月4日に副大統領に就任した後は、「選挙された」州知事たるウィリアム・G・ブラウンロウが4月5日に就任するまでの間、イーストは「テネシー州知事代理」を務めた。 公式『テネシー州青書 (Tennessee Blue Book)』は、イーストを公式な知事の一覧に含めていない。これは、テネシー州知事経験者の人数が資料によって異なる理由の1つである。 イーストは、1854年にレバノン法学校(のちのカンバーランド法学校)を卒業した。彼はヘンリー・クレイに倣ってホイッグ党員となった。彼は、南部諸州の連邦脱退には反対であった。エイブラハム・リンカン暗殺後、大統領となったアンドルー・ジョンソンはイーストをワシントンD.C. に呼び出し、イースト判事に「空いている任意の地位に就くよう勧めたが、彼はその全てを断った」。イーストは著名な法律家であり、連邦最高裁に持ち込まれた諸々の事件について論じた。また、南北戦争前後には演説者として知られた。イースト判事は、ヴァンダービルト大学評議会の設立委員5名のうち1人であった。 テネシー州ナッシュヴィルのオリヴェット・マウント墓地に埋葬された。
