Benton County

BENTON COUNTY

Origin/meaning

Benton County was formed in 1905 and was named for Thomas Hart Benton, a U.S. senator from Missouri.

In 2018 the county unveiled a rebranding campaign in which they redesigned the county seal. The new Benton County seal was developed with input and guidance from county employees through various surveys and focus groups. The end result emphasizes the traits and characteristics that the county is most known for: the confluence of three major rivers and the beautiful natural landscapes and sunshine of the region.Heraldic Bibliography:
