Albert John "A.J" Gibson (April 1, 1862 — December 31, 1927) was an architect in Missoula, Montana who designed a number of buildings that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Gibson was born on a farm near Savannah, Ashland County, Ohio in 1862 and arrived in Missoula, Montana around 1889. He married Maud Lockley on January 30, 1889. He had a short career as a carpenter before designing many landmark buildings in the Missoula area. Gibson retired in 1909, but as a devout Presbyterian and friend of Rev. John Maclean, he drew up the architectural plans for the First Presbyterian Church, which opened in 1915. He and his wife were killed instantly in December 1927 when their automobile was struck by a train in Missoula.
