Fulton
County was formed December 21, 1842, from territory taken from Izard County,
and is named for William Savin Fulton, the last Governor of Arkansas Territory.
The
county seat is Salem.
Landscape of Fulton County is rugged and
mountainous. The well-known Mammoth
Spring, one of the largest single-outlet springs in North America, is located
in the northern part of the county, just a few feet from the Missouri state
line.
The
Fulton County courthouse, built in 1890, was restored in 1973 and has become a
landmark.
