Population of 5,217 and is made up of the following towns: Cook, Crab Orchard, Elk Creek, Saint Mary, Sterling, Tecumseh and Vesta.
Tecumseh is the county seat which has one of my favorite courthouses in the entire state. It is so clean. I could probably eat off of that floor.
If you have been following us on our countdown you would notice that there are some pretty sad looking courthouses. I’m looking at you...Boyd County and Keith County.
JOHNSON COUNTY HAS SOME INTERESTING HISTORY:
The county was named after Col. Richard M. Johnson.
