Representative Fred Leonard Blackmon - Contact Information

Fred Leonard Blackmon (born September 15, 1873) was an American politician who represented the state of Alabama in the United States House of Representatives in the early twentieth century. A member of the Democratic Party, he served as a U.S. Representative from April 4, 1911, to March 3, 1923. Over the course of his congressional career, Blackmon completed six terms in the House, reflecting sustained support from his constituents and a significant period of legislative service.

During his tenure, Blackmon served as a Representative for Alabama without a specifically designated numbered district in the available record, noted here as district “-1.” His service in Congress placed him among the historical members who helped shape federal policy during a period that spanned the years before, during, and immediately after World War I. After leaving office in 1923, he was regarded as a former member of Congress, and his career remains part of Alabama’s congressional history.
