The first American settlement in the area now known as Scott County was Valley City (now known as Pleasant Valley) in 1833.
Other early towns included Davenport (now the county seat and largest city) and Rockingham (which ceased to exist in 1847).
The area was fully surveyed in 1837, and the county was established by the Wisconsin legislature in that same year. Scott County
is named for General Winfield Scott, who was the presiding officer at the signing of the peace treaty ending the Black Hawk War.
By 1900 the population of the county was 51,500, and by 1950 it was over 100,000. Scott County now comprises part of the Quad City
region, which includes the cities of Davenport and Bettendorf (in Iowa) and Rock Island and Moline (in Illinois).
The present Scott County Courthouse was completed in 1955 and expanded along with the jail in 2007. The old section of the
Scott County Jail was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983
