In 1818, he erected a residence in Madison, Indiana, which is still standing, in good condition, and known as the Sullivan Home. While a member of the Indiana Legislature, he suggested the name "Indianapolis" for the new State Capital. At first, the suggestion met with ridicule, but after much discussion was adopted. He was a member of the early Indiana Supreme Court, consisting of three Justices, Blackford, Dewey and Sullivan. He was a graduate of William and Mary College of Williamsburg, Virginia.
