Lawrence County, County seat and administrative division in northeastern Arkansas, US.
Lawrence County spans 592 square miles across flat-topped rolling hills in the west and fertile delta river bottomland in the east.
Established on January 15, 1815, Lawrence County earned recognition as the Mother of Counties, contributing territory to form thirty-one other Arkansas counties.
The Lawrence County Fair and PRCA Rodeo in August brings together residents for livestock judging, educational displays, pageants, and musical performances.
Three main highways intersect the county, connecting residents to neighboring regions while supporting agricultural transportation of rice, soybeans, and milo crops.
