Edward Lennox Sloan (1830–1874) was a Latter-day Saint editor and publisher. He also was the arranger of the text of the hymn "For the Strength of the Hills" into the version currently contained in the hymnal of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). In 1851, Sloan married Mary Wallace, who was also a native of Ireland. After having served as editor of the Millennial Star, Sloan immigrated to Utah Territory in 1863. He crossed the ocean on the Amazon on which he served as the first counselor in the presidency over the Latter-day Saints on board.
