Calhoun County is Florida's 20th county, established on January 26, 1838, from a segment of Escambia County. It gains its name from John Caldwell Calhoun (1782 - 1850), a politician for many years of his life best known as a senator from South Carolina who strongly supported state's rights. Blountstown is the county seat. Blountstown was named after John Blount, a well known chief of a tribe of Native Americans that lived in this area.
