DESCRIPTION:
Mifflin Wistar Gibbs  1902  Courtesy  C.M. Bell Studio  Mifflin Wistar Gibbs (April 17, 1823 – July 11, 1915) was an African-American lawyer, judge, diplomat, and banker. He lived in the U.S. and Canada. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he moved to California as a young man during the Gold Rush. Angered by discriminatory laws passed in 1858, he and several hundred other American blacks moved that year to Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, where he worked for ten years.
After the American Civil War, Gibbs and many of the other black settlers returned to the United States. In the late 1860s, he settled in the capital city of Little Rock, Arkansas, and became an attorney. He was active in Reconstruction politics, and in 1873 Gibbs was elected as a city judge, the first black judge elected in the United States. In 1897, in the William McKinley administration, he was appointed as American consul to Madagascar.
