Here is a photograph taken in 1874 of John H. Noble who was Minneapolis Chief of Police from 1874-1875.

At the time of Chief Noble’s appointment, the Minneapolis Police Department was comprised of eight officers: A.S. Munger; Terrence Connolly; A.C.Berry; John West; B. Hunt; J.D. Rich; Louis Solbery; and Charles Russell.

A.S.Munger went on to become chief in 1876, followed by A.C.Berry in 1883 who was followed by John West in 1884.
