Question for:

In March 1871, the governor from North Carolina became the first governor in history to be impeached and removed from office. The Democratic legislature of the state removed him for fighting the Ku Klux Klan, charging him with, among other things, the illegal use of military force. The governor has the same first and last name as a famous actor whose less well-known and non-Carolina films include Arizona (1940), Texas (1941), and The Man from Colorado (1948). What is that name?
