Andrew L. Harris

Andrew Lintner Harris (also known as The Farmer-Statesman) (November 17, 1835September 13, 1915) was one of the heroes of the Battle of Gettysburg and the last Civil War general to serve as a governor in the U.S., serving as the 44th governor of Ohio.

Harris was born in Milford Township, Butler County, Ohio. After graduating from Miami University in 1860, Harris enlisted as a private in the Union Army, and quickly rose to the rank of General. An attorney, Harris began practicing law in 1865 and then served in the Ohio State Senate from 1866-70 and as Preble County Probate Judge from 1875-82. Harris served as Lieutenant Governor of Ohio three times, elected in 1892 and 1894 as the running mate of William McKinley, and again in 1904. An early temperance activist and Republican politician, Harris served as governor from 1906-1909. He was renominated in 1909, but lost narrowly. While in office, Harris signed legislation banning corporate political donations. Harris also served on the U.S. Industrial Commission on Trusts under President McKinley.
