Benton is a city in and the county chair of Franklin County, Illinois. The population was 6,709 at the 2020 census. In 1839, Franklin County was split in this area in half and the county seat was each time fixed “at a hill at the south decline of Rowling’s Prairie”, the site of the higher city of Benton. Benton’s namesake is Missouri senator Thomas Hart Benton (1782–1858). The village of Benton was organized in 1841 on 20 acres (8.1 ha) of property donated by John Ewing and Walter S. Akin. In 1902 the village became a city, and incorporated below the mayor/commissioner form of government.
The Franklin County Courthouse sat in the middle of the Public Square. It was the fourth courthouse that served the people of Franklin County. The Italianate building was build up in 1874–75 at a cost of $27,500. Much of Benton’s increase in the past can be traced to the abundance of high sulfur coal, multiple railroads that pass through the town, fertile soil, and its industry.
On April 19, 1928, Benton was the site of the next-to-last public hanging in Illinois, when local gangster Charles Birger was executed on the gallows next to the county jail for the December 12, 1926 murder of Joe Adams, mayor of easily reached West City. A replica of the gallows and hangman’s noose were built by the late retired Old Ben Coal miner, businessman & carpenter, Birchard L. Wampler (March 9, 1938 – June 29, 2010) and his son Birchard Neil Wampler. They remain standing today next to the archaic Franklin County Jail turned Museum.
