Golconda’s Rise and Fall From Ferry Town to County Seat

Golconda Illinois grew from a river crossing started by Major James Lusk’s ferry service in 1796 to a planned village by 1817. The town, once Ferguson’s Ferry, was renamed Corinth then Golconda by 1817 and officially platted in 1816 and again in 1817. It became a river trade hub with steamboats and a courthouse built in 1871, while legends of Lusk and buried treasure linger.
