Henry E. Blackman served in the offices of Allegan County Superintendent of the Poor, Allegan County Drain Commissioner, Trowbridge Township Supervisor, and Justice of the Peace under the banner of the National Party. The highest office he held was that of State Representative in the Michigan Legislature, to which position he elected in 1879. After serving only one term in that office, however, he was defeated in the 1881 race by Republican Francis Adam Goodman.

Blackman was born in Aurora, Ohio (Portage County) 6 January 1820. In 1839, he relocated to Michigan, finally settling in Trowbridge Township, Allegan County in 1841. Outside of the political arena, Blackman made his living as a farmer.
