Desha County Circuit Judge, 406 Oak St, McGehee, AR 71654, US

Desha County, located in Arkansas, was established in 1838 and named after Captain Ben Desha. With its rich, flat delta farmland and the Mississippi River forming its eastern boundary, the county has a long history of agriculture and waterway connections. Desha County is known for its major grain shipping and storage center, as well as its 3.9 million Port and industrial park at Yellow Bend on the Mississippi. The county seat, Arkansas City, is home to one of the oldest courthouses still in operation in the state, while the White River Wildlife Refuge provides a sanctuary for migratory waterfowl. Desha County, along with Chicot County, benefits from its strategic location at the convergence of three major rivers in North America: the White, the Arkansas, and the Mississippi. This location, combined with railways and waterways, has contributed to the county's economic growth. With a population of 15,341, Desha County offers a unique blend of natural beauty, agricultural heritage, and industrial opportunities.Generated from the website
