Isaac N. Blackford (1786-1859) was one of Indiana's first Supreme Court Justices. He moved to Salem, Indiana in 1812 and served as county clerk. Five years later he moved to Indianapolis when he was appointed to the Indiana Supreme Court. In 1824, he upheld the controversial convictions of four Indianapolis men who were convicted for the murders of ten Native Americans known as the Fall Creek Massacre. They became the first European Americans in Indiana to be executed for killing Native Americans. Blackford had significant landholdings including a large portion of IUPUI land along West Street.
