    Knox County is one of eight counties named in honor of Henry Knox, the first
    US
    Secretary of War.
    The first "
    Knox
    County
    " in
    Illinois
    is unrelated to the modern incarnation. In 1790, the
    land that was to become
    Illinois
    was divided into two counties: St. Clair and Knox. The
    latter included land in what was to become
    Indiana
    . When
    Knox County
    ,
    Indiana
    was
    formed from this portion of the county in 1809, the
    Illinois
    portions were subdivided
    into counties that were given other names.
    The modern
    Knox County
    ,
    Illinois
    , was organized in 1825, from
    Fulton
    County
    , itself a
    portion of the original St. Clair County.
