News to me. I was under the impression that "inalienable," the form Jefferson wrote, was the correct form, and that the other was essentially a typo. My Webster's dictionary (1960 ed.) lists "inalienable" but not "unalienable." The "in-" prefix is a negative, from Latin, so has the same meaning as "un-."
But I have never read Blackstone.
