Mikkel Mikkelsen (also called Michael) (DOB - DOD) was Governor-General ad interim of St. Thomas in the Danish West Indies, from 27 February 1686 to 29 June 1686.
When the rule of Gabriel Milan, and his imprisonment of former Governor Adolph Esmit had become a problem for the Danish West India Company in 1686, it was decided that Mikkelsen was to be sent as a commissioner to settle the difficulties.
Finally, after making it clear to Milan that his actions could cause him to be held liable for rebellion, and that his men were leaving him, Mikkelsen managed to talk him to returning to Copenhagen.
[2] Mikkelsen's task was now to collect evidence of Milan's misconduct for the trial in Copenhagen, and acted as de facto Governor of the island from this day.
According to exchanges with West India Company Director Albert Gyllensparre, the proceedings were quite heated, as both Esmit and Milan would accuse each other, shouting and screaming.
