In 1829, Daniel and Mary Fore deeded forty acres for the county seat in Brandon. A two-story, frame structure was built in 1833. This and other buildings were used until 1853, when a new courthouse was built here. After it burned in 1924, the present courthouse, designed by N.W. Overstreet, was completed in 1925.
