Most Common USA County Names

Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Jackson, Lincoln ...

Does your state have an above-mentioned county?

Alabama has every one, except Lincoln.

Inspired by a sweet poster.

Wisconsin has a Lincoln county, but not a Franklin county, has Washington, Jefferson, Jackson counties

I have no idea why Franklin was not honored as a county, but it there is a city of Franklin named after him.

I believe 31 states have a Washington.

Perhaps I should have placed this in Members Only ...

Maybe you should have posted it in USA Today LOL

Of course Alabama didn't like Lincoln.

How about Hamilton County, I live in one now, and was born in one in the north in another state. You snowbird, are a sweet one :-)

Yes it could be a bit of a hindrance for people to post something like that when they are worried about anonymity.

Thanks, Non.

No Hamilton in Alabama.

I memorized and made a list of all 67 counties in my state, also the county seats, and number of letters in each.

I used to know how many counties were in each state of the Union, but old women forget, also.

Tee hee hee.

I've got a list here somewhere.

Does your state have an above-mentioned county?

Not in AZ. The county names here are mostly drawn from Native American cultures:

-Navajo, Apache, Coconino, Yavapai, Maricopa, Cochise, Mohave, Yuma, etc.

Maricopa is the most familiar.

Thanks.
