Isaac Parker
Isaac Charles Parker (October 15, 1838 – November 17, 1896) was a United States District Judge who presided over the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas for 21 years. He served in this capacity during the western expansion of the United States and is remembered today as the "Hanging Judge" of the American Old West. He also served as a Congressman for Missouri's 7th District.
In 21 years on the federal bench, Judge Parker tried 13,490 cases—344 of which were for capital offenses. Suspects pleaded guilty or were convicted at trial in 9,454 cases. Of the 160 sentenced to death by hanging (156 men, and 4 women), 79 were hanged. The rest died while incarcerated, appealed, or were pardoned.
== Early life ==
Parker was the youngest son of Joseph Parker and his wife Jane Shannon. He was raised on the family farm near Barnesville, Ohio. He attended Breeze Hill primary school, followed by the Barnesville Classical Institute, a private school. He taught in a county primary school to pay for his secondary education.
When he was 17, Parker decided to become a lawyer. He combined an apprenticeship with a local lawyer with his own self studies. He passed the bar exam in 1859.
