George B. Jackson
George B. Jackson (1850 – November 25, 1900), was a former slave who became a soldier in the United States Army, serving with the Buffalo Soldiers from 1869-1875 in Texas. He became a businessman, landowner, sheep rancher, and politician in San Angelo, Texas. One of the founders in the 1890s of the Republican Party in San Angelo, he was widely believed to have been the wealthiest African American in the state during the second half of the 19th century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=San Angelo Genealogical and Historical Society Meeting Gets Rescheduled )〕
In 1894, Jackson was chosen to address the Republican state convention, and in 1897, he was appointed by President William McKinley as customs inspector in Presidio, Texas.

George B. Jackson was born into slavery on a plantation in Brunswick County, Virginia. He was of mixed race and may have been sired by his white master. He was 15 years old when he became free after the American Civil War and emancipation.
