Ogle County, Administrative county in northern Illinois, United States
The territory of Ogle County spans 763 square miles across northern Illinois, featuring rolling hills, agricultural fields, and forested areas.
The county, established in 1836, received its name from Captain Joseph Ogle, a Revolutionary War veteran who settled in Illinois during 1785.
The first settlers from New England brought educational values and anti-slavery principles, shaping the early development of Ogle County communities.
Residents access county services at the administrative center in Oregon, Illinois, which manages elections, property records, and public safety programs.
Since the establishment of the Republican Party in 1856, Ogle County maintains an unbroken record of voting Republican in presidential elections.
