Biography

Lemuel Willard Royse (born January 19, 1847) was a Republican politician who represented Indiana in the United States House of Representatives in the late nineteenth century. Serving as a member of Congress from Indiana’s 13th Congressional District, he held office as a U.S. Representative during a period of national political and economic change.

Royse served two terms in the House of Representatives, with his congressional service beginning on December 2, 1895, and concluding on March 3, 1899. During this time, he was a member of the Republican Party and represented the interests of his Indiana constituents at the federal level. Although specific committee assignments, legislative initiatives, and details of his congressional office operations are not provided in the available record, his tenure places him among the historical members of Congress who helped shape federal policy at the close of the nineteenth century.

After leaving office in 1899, Royse was no longer in public office at the federal level, and he is recorded as a former representative. Further personal details, including his later life, professional activities outside Congress, and date of death, are not included in the available metadata.
