 Delos Davis

Delos Rogest Davis, (August 4, 1846 – April 13, 1915) was the third black lawyer in Canada and the first black King's Counsel.Davis is widely and erroneously considered to be the first Black lawyer in Canada, but Robert Sutherland (who was called to the bar in 1855 and died in 1878) was already dead before Davis was called to the bar of the Law Society of Upper Canada, and Abraham Walker was called to the New Brunswick bar in 1882.
