Sir John O'Shanassy, KCMG (18 February 1818 – 5 May 1883), was an Irish-Australian politician who served as the 2nd Premier of Victoria. O'Shanassy was born near Thurles in County Tipperary, Ireland, the son of a surveyor, and came to the Port Phillip District (later Victoria) in 1839. He went into business in Melbourne as a draper, and by 1846 he was rich enough to be elected to the Melbourne City Council and to become the founding chairman of the Colonial Bank of Australasia. By the 1850s he was a major landowner and one of the wealthiest men in the colony. He also became a recognised leader of the large Irish Catholic community.

  • Polaiteoir treallúsach Gael-Astrálach in Victoria na hAstráile sa 19ú haois ba ea an Ridire Seán Ó Seachnasaigh (1818-1883) (Béarla: John O'Shanassy). Mac le Seán Ó Seachnasaigh, suirbhéir, agus le Máiréad (née Dwyer) ba ea é, agus rugadh é i mBaile na hAbha in aice le Dúrlas Éile, Contae Thiobraid Árann. Cailleadh a athair sa bhliain 1831, rud a chuir deireadh lena chuid oideachais, agus cuireadh é ina phrintíseach le fear a bhí ina éadaitheoir agus ina cheannaí biotáille. Tháinig rath air san Astráil agus é faoi anáil Dhónail Uí Chonaill i gcúrsaí polaitíochta. Ar nós an Chonallaigh, bhí rún aige leasú srianta a chur i bhfeidhm agus an radachas a sheachaint. D’fhág sé a rian go soiléir ar shaol a linne, agus tá fianaise ann go raibh suim aige sa Ghaeilge. (ga)
