Welcome

Lincoln County is named for Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States. Created as Arkansas's 65th county on March 28, 1871, Lincoln County has three incorporated cities, including Star City, the county seat and most populous city, though the county had a second county seat at Varner from 1885-1912. Grady and Gould are also incorporated.
