Comments

  • The thirteenth county of the series of tracing out the remainder of the counties of the Evansville Area in both Kentucky and Illinois.
  • i aways thought Dixon was the county seat, at least thats where the courthouse...
  • Dixon is the county seat people from Sebree merely have an overinflated sense of self worth.
