on December 16th, 1853, as Kinchafoonee County. A subsequent legislative act on February 21st, 1856, changed the
name to Webster. The land for the county came from portions of Stewart County.
The County is named for Daniel Webster, U.S. representative of New Hampshire and U.S. representative and U.S. senator
of Massachusetts. Webster County's original name of Kinchafoonee comes from the Kinchafoonee Creek which runs through
the county
