Historic Indiana Statutes

Welcome to my library of historic Indiana statutory law! Linked digitized law books include territorial and state session laws, with public and some private acts, and topical compilations. In some cases, I have noted years when laws were printed, but they were not found. Later compilations might include those laws.

I wrote a blog post introducing the Indiana Statutes page.
