History
Little River County was cut from Sevier County and established in 1867. The county seat was established in Alleene in 1867 and was moved to Richmond in 1880. The courthouse burned in 1882 and citizens of Richmond rebuilt the courthouse for free in hopes of keeping county administration in town, where it remained until moving to Rocky Comfort in 1902. Another election moved the courthouse to Ashdown in 1906 and the present structure was built the following year.
