City Name
History:
|
The
county seat was established in 1888 as Alma, but because of the
proliferation of that name in the U.S. Postal Guide city officials - in
quest for something uncommon and distinctive - christened it Pogue for Dr.
J.T. Pogue, orchardist and former state senator. Residents found the
name too different, and in 1907 it was given the present title. |
