I hadn&#8217;t but it&#8217;s certainly unusual enough to fit within the Twelve Mile Circle collection of geo-oddities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let&#8217;s take a closer look<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Adams County, IL was founding in 1825, and named for John Quincy Adams, the newly-elected president of the United States.<\/li><li>The county seat and primary town took the name Quincy at that same time, and for the same reason.<\/li><li>To complete the theme, they named the central gathering point within town, John Square.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>What a bizarre tribute: <strong>John<\/strong> (square) <strong>Quincy<\/strong> (county seat) <strong>Adams<\/strong> (county), Illinois. I&#8217;ve highlighted the location using Mapquest, because Google Maps still doesn&#8217;t draw county lines (and our <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=3487\">gentle encouragement<\/a> hasn&#8217;t produced any results). <ins datetime=\"2018-08-23T20:39:46+00:00\">[<em>Replaced with a Google Maps imagine during the August 2018 cleanup of this page<\/em>]<\/ins><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d782677.3060122397!2d-91.212524!3d39.978658!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x87e0ac7f90d7dcb1%3A0xfdf6b13f79dd3404!2sAdams%20County%2C%20IL!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1623671920640!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Would It Work Elsewhere?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What if we colonized the moon and decided to name a few more county seats after presidential middle names. We could end up with places in addition to Quincy like Henry, Knox, Simpson, Birchard, Abram, Alan, Howard, Gamaliel, Clark, Delano, S (with or without the period), David, Fitzgerald, Baines, Milhous, Rudolph, Earl, Wilson, Herbert, Jefferson, Walker or Hussein. I wouldn&#8217;t mind something like Wilson or Howard, but Milhous or Gamaliel might be a tad more difficult for the postmaster to decipher. Living in &#8220;S&#8221; might be fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Strangeness in Town<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess at some point the cuteness factor wore-off because <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Quincy,_Illinois#Early_history\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">they renamed it Washington Square<\/a> somewhere along the way. It&#8217;s listed as Washington Park on various online maps but I&#8217;ve done a bit of checking and I&#8217;m satisfied that it&#8217;s the same place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an aside, I noticed another interesting feature in Quincy: their main street isn&#8217;t Main Street, it&#8217;s Maine Street, which they tie in within a larger state-named theme. Those founding fathers of Adams County were clever and they had an unusual sense of humor. Good for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m10!1m8!1m3!1d1228.9355573093073!2d-91.409254!3d39.932615!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!5e1!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1623672387457!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can still try to force-fit the John Quincy Adams naming convention into place even though John Square no longer exists. Papa John&#8217;s Pizza and Jimmy John&#8217;s Gourmet Sandwiches both have places in Quincy. There&#8217;s also a Long John Silver&#8217;s but I think that&#8217;s pushing it a bit too far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for the tip, Jason!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason also wondered if similar situations existed elsewhere so I decided to see if I could return the favor by heading to the maps &#8212; like I ever need an excuse to do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I think I found a winner, by George<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wsdagov\/29055672768\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/1770\/29055672768_f540ffdd4e_b.jpg\" alt=\"Lavender.

That&#8217;s right, I found George, Washington. I know, a painful pun, right? <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/TBCKLUpM3EYdC2nv5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Some of the streets<\/a> even have cherry-themed names in tribute to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountvernon.org\/library\/digitalhistory\/digital-encyclopedia\/article\/cherry-tree-myth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">old folklore<\/a> I suspect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It gets even better. Head a few miles northeast and you&#8217;ll see George and Martha Lakes. Husband and wife are memorialized by adjacent geographic features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also found a few other presidential oddities but not nearly of the same magnitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/YEVH9jD6FmpKq7Mp7\">Jefferson County, Florida<\/a> has its county seat in Monticello, named after Thomas Jefferson&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monticello.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">famous homestead<\/a>.<\/li><li>There is a town in Texas called Nixon, although not in honor of the former president. However it included another coincidental naming, with <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/QkpLsgVEeP7tLjH27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Franklin and Roosevelt Avenues<\/a> running in parallel. Sadly it didn&#8217;t have a Delano Ave. between them (even a D. Street would have sufficed) or it would have made a complete <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Franklin_D._Roosevelt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FDR<\/a>. Nixon and FDR would have been an odd juxtaposition. Too bad; another missed opportunity.<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/jgKFD7zQHhbJwxx67\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lincoln County, Colorado has a town called Punkin Center<\/a>. I mention that only because I like silly places with kooky names.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Are there other counties named for presidents with towns (bonus points for county seats) or other geographic features named for things relating to that specific president?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tangent Alert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I wonder why I&#8217;ve seen an unusual spike in traffic related to the lowest elevation in Nepal this morning. I have <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=1274\">a nice page on that topic<\/a> but it seems odd to have two hundred people wanting an answer to the same basic question, all at the same time. There must be another geo-trivia contest going on or maybe a homework assignment?
