He was a judge of the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia (1860-1882).
Perhaps there is a portrait there.

You are correct!
He was a Trustee and Rector, not President, succeeding Alfred Leyburn
as Rector, from 1879 to 1887.
See http://ir.wlu.edu/about/presidents.htm
Ever seen a photograph or painting of him? I have several of Mary
Evelyn Anderson . . . but NONE of her father.
Even BETTER, any thoughts on Anderson papers relating to 1853-1854?
(I've checked and/or done due diligence at W&L, VMI, Duke, LVA, UVA,
UNC, Duke, & VHS)
