J Willard Gibbs' father, also called Josiah Willard Gibbs, was professor of sacred literature at Yale University. In fact the Gibbs family originated in Warwickshire, England and moved from there to Boston in 1658. However Gibbs is said to have taken after his mother in physical appearance. Gibbs was educated at the local Hopkins Grammar School where he was described as friendly but withdrawn. His total commitment to academic work together with rather delicate health meant that he was little involved with the social life of the school. In 1854 he entered Yale College where he won prizes for excellence in Latin and Mathematics. Remaining at Yale, Gibbs began to undertake research in engineering, writing a thesis in which he used geometrical methods to study the design of gears. When he was awarded a doctorate from Yale in 1863 it was the first doctorate of engineering to be conferred in the United States. After this he served as a tutor at Yale for three years, teaching Latin for the first two years and then Natural Philosophy in the third year. He was not short of money however since his father had died in 1861 and, since his mother had also died, Gibbs and his two sisters inherited a fair amount of money.

Dr. J. Willard Gibbs
Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839 - 1903) has been reckoned as one of the greatest American scientists of the 19th century. He provided a sound thermodynamic foundation to much of Physical Chemistry. "Gibbs' Phase Rule" is well known to all in the field today. Yale educated, he was awarded the first Doctor of Engineering in the U.S., and was appointed Professor of Mathematical Physics at Yale in 1871. In 1873 he published his first major works, "Graphical Methods in the Thermodynamics of Fluids," and "A Method of Geometrical Representation of the Thermodynamic Properties of Substances by Means of Surfaces". In 1876 came his most famous paper: "On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances." You can find more details about him at the Wikipedia page

Gibbs, Josiah (1839-1903)

American physicist who formulated a concept of thermodynamic equilibrium of a system in terms of energy and entropy His work, however, was published in a relatively obscure journal. Gibbs' contributions were therefore unknown among prominent European chemists until they were translated into German by Ostwald in 1892 and into French by in 1899. Gibbs reviewed the relationship between the laws of thermodynamics and statistical theory of molecular motions in Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics (1902). He also did extensive work on chemical equilibrium, and equilibria between phases. The overshooting of the original function by partial sums of Fourier series at points of discontinuity is known as the Gibbs phenomenon
