Excerpt from Indiana Historical Society Publications, Vol. 8

Judge James Lockhart, of the "Pocket of Indiana," was born at Auburn, New York, February 13, 1806, and died at Evansville, Indiana, September 7, 1857, past fifty-one years of age. His remains are at rest in Oak Hill Cemetery, at Evansville. It was thought his death was due to consumption. He is most prominently known in local history as an attorney, jurist and congressman. In 1833, Judge Lockhart was admitted to the bar in Vanderburgh county. He was commissioned a notary, April 17, 1834. Among the smaller political positions filled by Judge Lockhart, it is recalled that from May 23, 1835, to June 10, 1836, he was surveyor at Evansville; he then became city clerk and served until June 7, 1837, at which time he became trustee of the second ward. He was county agent of Vanderburgh county. This was an office created in March, 1818, and abolished in 1852. The work of the county agent, under the first constitution, was merged into the duties of the county auditor, by the present constitution. In 1837, Judge Lockhart was an attorney at law, in Evansville; he became prosecuting attorney in his judicial district, in 1842.
