Logan County is a county located in the U.S. state of Arkansas. As of 2000, the population was 22,486. There are two county seats: Booneville and Paris.

The Arkansas General Assembly defined the state's 64th county on March 22, 1871, and named it Sarber County for John N. Sarber, the Republican state senator from Yell County who had introduced the resolution.

The senator was viewed as a carpetbagger, and after the Reconstruction Era state government was replaced the county was renamed for James Logan, Logan County and all of Arkansas, is colorful and yet very serious at the same time. History is simply a collection of stories about people, places and times. Some are funny, some are sad - all teach us a little about who we are, no matter where we call home.
