A great site for all the US counties, their locations, their dates of formation, and many other facts (such as courthouse fires, etc.) can be found at http://www.familyhistory101.com/states.html.
All you have to do is click on a state and then click a county name or hover over an area to see what counties are nearby. Once you click on the county of choice, you will have oodles of facts at your fingertips. Have fun!
