Of the seventy-five counties of Arkansas, ten have been named in honor of presidents of the United States. On November 30, 1844, the state legislature named the newest county then to be created in honor of James K. Polk, approximately three weeks after the popular vote had been cast in the general election and four months before he was inaugurated the eleventh U.S. president.
