My notes from _Breaking the Academic Mould: Economists and American Higher 
Learning in the 19th Century_ (ed. William Barber) tell me that the first 
chair in Political Economy in the US was established in 1871, at Harvard.   
I didn't note the chairholder, but I think it may have been Charles 
F. Dunbar.
