County Courthouse
HISTORY Ogle
County was formed in 1836 out of Jo Daviess and LaSalle Counties, and
named in honor of Captain Joseph Ogle, a veteran of the Revolutionary
War who came to Illinois in 1785. Ogle did not have an organized
government until 1837, so for a year it remained attached to Jo Daviess
County.[citation needed] The county was divided three years later in
1839, when Lee County was formed.
