Old Robert Mills Courthouse torn down in 1911. Located same spot as present courthouse.

The actual date of this picture is not known, but it dates well before the 1954 additions to the jail.

Although this photograph is marked as Union County's first jail, this was not true. According to Dr Allan D. Charles, author of "The narrative History of Union County", the first jail was in the Unionville District very close to the Robert Mills Jail. The jail in this picture was located in Pinckneyville and was constructed between 1791 and 1800. This picture was taken in the mid 1940's and the jail was finally burned by vandals in 1983.
