Benjamin Hickox (also Benjamin Hickcox) (1686–November 17, 1745) was a member of the Connecticut House of Representatives from Norwalk, Connecticut Colony in the session of May 1728.

He was the son of Samuel Hickox, and Hannah Upton.

He operated a gristmill which was located behind the present site of the Congregational Church in

Wilton where there is a waterfall over the Comstock Brook (the Falls Branch of the Norwalk River). The mill served as a gathering place where local residents organized their efforts for status as a parish.[5] He was the first deacon of the Congregational Church in Wilton.[3]
