Jasper County was created on February 15, 1831 (Laws, 1831, p. 51) and was formed from Clay and Crawford Counties.
County organization was completed on December 19, 1834. Present area, or parts of it, formerly included in: Crawford
County (1816–1831) , Clay County (1824–1821) , Edwards County (1815–1816) , Madison County (1812–1815) , Randolph County
(1803–1812) , St. Clair County (1801–1812) and Knox, Northwest Territory (1790–1801) .
The County was named for William Jasper, a Sergeant of the Revolution who, during the action in Charleston harbor, replaced
the flag shot away at Fort Moultrie, and later was killed at Savannah in 1779. The County Seat is Newton (1835-Present) .
