Blytheville, AR ( built 1919)
Osceola, AR built (1912)
Upon moving to Mississippi County, AR , I soon learned the county had two county seats and two courthouses. I thought this was strange, and when I mentioned it, I was told Mississippi county was the largest county in Arkansas, and two were required. In the early 1900 hundreds roads were poor and travel was difficult. Since then I have learned that nine other counties share dual county seats.
I'm still curious.

That is very interesting. I remember the Blytheville
Court House as a child.
And thanks for the info on Dell.

Now the roads are easier for travelling wonder why they still need two.
Nice photos.
