About Mount Vernon
Mount Vernon is a tiny town on the eastern edge of Faulkner County (population 144 at the 2020 census, per Wikipedia), its eastern border following the White County line. Settled before the Civil War around a store and grist mill, it was briefly called Houseville before the post office took the name Mount Vernon in 1877 and the town incorporated the next year (per the Encyclopedia of Arkansas). It is home to the high school of the Mount Vernon–Enola School District (per the Encyclopedia of Arkansas), making the school campus the town's anchor.
