The first governor of the District of Columbia was Thomas W. Smith, who served from 1801 to 1802. However, it's important to note that the District of Columbia was not governed by a traditional governor like a state; instead, it was initially managed by a three-member commission. The governance structure changed over time, and the district was eventually given a locally elected mayor and council.
