William Wheeler Thornton (June 27, 1851 - January 31, 1932) was an Indiana lawyer, Attorney General, judge, and author. He was born in Logansport, Indiana, to John Allen and Elizabeth B. Thomas Thornton, members of respectable farming families. After attending Smithson College, a Universalist educational center, William became interested in law, entering the University of Michigan in 1875. He graduated in 1876 (LL.B). Upon returning to Logansport, Indiana, William Thornton worked in the law office of his uncle, Henry Clay Thornton, a prominent lawyer and father of Sir Henry Worth Thornton.
From 1879 to 1889, he alternated private practice with civic positions, including Crawfordsville, Indiana city attorney and Deputy Attorney General of Indiana (1880–1883). From 1889 to 1893, William W. Thornton served as Librarian of the Indiana Supreme Court. After two more decades of private practice, William Thornton became judge of the Superior Court of Marion County, Indiana (Nov. 20, 1914), serving until his death on January 31, 1932.
William W. Thornton also taught law at the Benjamin Harrison Law School, serving as Dean until his death. The school is now Indiana University School of Law- Indianapolis.
