Wellington John Thompson (September 2, 1869 - October 5, 1937) publisher, magistrate, and notary served as the ninth mayor of the Village of Elkhorn. Born in Caledonia, Haldimand County, Ontario to William D. and Phoebe Thompson, Wellington John received his education at Tillsonburg and arrived in Elkhorn in 1892. He took over publication of the local newspaper the ''Elkhorn Advocate'' in 1893 and continued its publication until 1910. Nominated for election as the village's first mayor in 1905, Thompson lost the election by a single vote to rival William Cushing.〔''Who’s Who in Western Canada: A Biographical Dictionary of Notable Living Men and Women of Western Canada'', Volume 1, 1911.
