Cornelius Voorhies (July 22, 1804 – July 1, 1859) was a justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court from May 4, 1853 to April 27, 1859. Voorhies, "of Dutch descent", was born in the state of Louisiana on July 22, 1804. Two sources disagree on his birthplace: Celebration of the Centenary of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, dated to 1913, states that Voorhies was born in Avoyelles Parish, while the Dictionary of Louisiana Biography states that Voorhies' birthplace was Opelousas, in neighboring St. Landry Parish. He served as a district attorney, as a state senator, and as a district judge.
