From Wikipedia

Major General Howell Cobb (September 7, 1815 – October 9, 1868) was an American politician and Confederate States Army officer. A southern Democrat, Cobb was a five-term member of the United States House of Representatives and the speaker of the House from 1849 to 1851. He also served as the 40th governor of Georgia (1851–1853) and as a secretary of the treasury under President James Buchanan (1857–1860). Cobb is, however, best known as one of the founders of the Confederate States of America, having served as the President of the Provisional Congress of the Confederate States where delegates of the Southern slave states declared that they had seceded from the United States and created the Confederacy.
