Jefferson Co.

JAMES C. GILBERT was born at Jackson, Mo., December 12, 1832, but, if not
a Kentuckian born, is descended from a good old Kentucky family, his
maternal grandfather, James Duncan, having been one of the early settlers
of Louisville.  His father died when the subject was still quite young,
and his mother removed to Salem, Ind.  Here James grew to manhood,
received a good practical education, and was apprenticed to the printers'
trade, and learned to set type under the watchful eye of Mr. Oliver Lucas.
He came to Louisville about 1847.  He is the practical head of one of
the largest printing houses in Louisville, or the South, and one of the
sound and enterprising business men of the city.  For a number of years he
has been an important factor in Louisville politics.  He was long a member
of the school board, and for nearly two decades has been a member of the
council; under Mayor Baxter's administration he was for two years
president of the board of aldermen, is now again serving in that position,
and succeeded the late Hon. James Trabue as president of the Sinking Fund
commissioners.  He married Miss Emma B. Hoe, of Louisville.
