Do you know of Lecont ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Lecont. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Lecont.<1>

Our sources for Lecont (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Lecont other than they indicate that Lecont would be found somewhere in Pulaski County, Arkansas.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1890 and closed  in 1905.
