Thomas Ringland Stockdale (March 28, 1828 – January 8, 1899) was a U.S. Representative from Mississippi.

Biography

Born at West Union Church near Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, Stockdale graduated from Jefferson College (now Washington & Jefferson College) in 1856 and received a master's degree in 1859.[1] He taught school in Pike County, Mississippi,[2] received his law degree from the University of Mississippi in 1859 and practiced in Woodville, Mississippi.[3]

During the Civil War, he served in the Confederate States Army. Enlisting as a private in the 16th Mississippi Infantry in 1861, he was promoted to lieutenant, captain and major, and served as regimental adjutant. He later commanded a battalion in the 4th Mississippi Cavalry Regiment and then served as the regiment's second in command with the rank of lieutenant colonel.[4][5]

After the war Stockdale resumed the practice of law in Summit, Mississippi. He served as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 1868. He was also a Democratic presidential elector in 1872 and 1884.[6]

Stockdale was elected to the United States House of Representatives as a Democrat in 1886 and served four terms, March 4, 1887 to March 3, 1895. He was an unsuccessful candidate for renomination in 1894.[7][8][9][10]

In 1896 Stockdale was appointed to fill a vacancy as a Justice of the Mississippi Supreme Court and he served until 1897.[11]

He died in Summit, Mississippi on January 8, 1899, and was interred in Summit's Woodlawn Cemetery.[12][13][14]

Stockdale's home has been preserved by the Summit Historical Society, and the grounds of his home also contain a memorial to Stockdale.[15]
