'''Charles Mifflin''' was the [[Escambia County Sheriff]] and [[Escambia County Tax Collector|Tax Collector]] in [[1827]].

There are few surviving references to Mifflin. An [[October 15]], [[1821]] newspaper article cites Mifflin selling his "interest in the saw mill on the [[Perdido]], called [[Mifflin's Mill]]." He is listed as the governor-appointed sheriff in another article on [[February 9]], [[1827]]. Mifflin is listed as Tax Collector in August, 1827.

A [[September 21]], [[1827]] petition recommended Mifflin as a U.S. Marshall for West Florida, but this position went instead to [[Henry Wilson]], who also replaced Mifflin as sheriff on [[April 18]], [[1828]].
