The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗On Jan. 26, 1826, Equality was officially established by the General Assembly as the county seat of Gallatin County. The courthouse was built in 1827 for the amount of $1,300.00. Court was held there until 1851, when all legal documents were removed to Shawneetown. The building was later used as a school, church and local society meetings. It was destroyed by fire Nov. 28, 1894.
