- Elihu Benjamin Washburne was one of seven brothers that played a prominent role in the early formation of the United States Republican Party. He later served as United States Secretary of State in 1869. Washburne, a resident of Galena, Illinois, represented northwestern Illinois in the United States House of Representatives from 1853 to 1869. While in Congress, he was also a member of the powerful Appropriations Committee . He was known for his courage, and met President-elect Abraham Lincoln upon his arrival in Washington, D.C. on February 23 1861. An assassination attempt was feared, and other Republican Party leaders were afraid to take on this duty. Washburne had hidden the whereabouts of President-elect Lincoln by personally cutting telegraph wires in key locations. Originally a Whig, Washburne was an early member of the Republicans and a leader of the Radical Republicans. He was among the original proponents of legal racial equality. After the Civil War, Washburne advocated that large plantations be divided up to provide compensatory property for freed slaves. Washburne served as President Ulysses S. Grant's Secretary of State, replacing William H. Seward, for twelve days in March 1869; it remains the shortest term of any Secretary of State. He then became ambassador to France, where he was influential in negotiating the peace treaty for the Franco-Prussian War. Washburne retired from government in 1876, although he was mentioned as a presidential candidate at the Republican conventions in 1880 and 1884. He moved to Chicago, Illinois, and served as president of the Chicago Historical Society from 1884 to 1887. Three of Washburne's brothers also became politicians. His son, Hempstead Washburne, was mayor of Chicago from 1891 to 1893. Washburne Street at 1230 south in Chicago is named in honor of Elihu Washburne.

- Elihu Benjamin Washburne, född 23 september 1816 i Livermore, Massachusetts, död 23 oktober 1887 i Chicago, var en amerikansk republikansk politiker. Han var en av sju bröder som var aktiva i grundandet av USA:s republikanska parti. Innan han blev republikan hade han varit medlem av whig-partiet. Washburne var en ledare av den radikalrepublikanska falangen och ledamot av från Illinois. När Abraham Lincoln anlände i Washington D.C. i februari 1861, vågade många av de ledande republikanerna inte träffa honom, eftersom de fruktade ett mordförsök. Washburne mötte Lincoln och gjorde sitt bästa i att hemlighålla var den tillträdande presidenten befann sig. Washburne var en anhängare av lika rättigheter oavsett ras. Efter amerikanska inbördeskriget förespråkade han att plantager skulle delas upp för att kompensera frigivna slavar för deras lidande. Washburne var USA:s utrikesminister i tolv dagar 1869 under president Ulysses S. Grant; det är den kortaste ämbestperioden för en amerikansk utrikesminister. Därefter ledde han USA:s diplomatiska beskickning i Frankrike och spelade en central roll i fredsförhandlingarna efter fransk-tyska kriget. Han återvände från Frankrike 1877. Hans namn nämndes bland tänkbara presidentkandidater 1880 och 1884, men han blev inte nominerad. Han var ordförande för Chicago Historical Society 1884-1887. Gatan Washburne Street i Chicago fick sitt namn efter honom. Hans son Hempstead Washburne var borgmästare i Chicago 1891-1893.
