Date

1900 to 1925

Undated photograph, approximate date 1908. A group of men, accompanied by two boys standing in front of a wooden hotel. Two signs pictured state, "For County Division" and "Los [sic] Vegas Democratic Delegation for County Division." The Lincoln County Division Club was formed in Las Vegas in July 1908 to convince the state government to separate the Las Vegas area from Lincoln County and make Las Vegas the new county seat.

Clark County was eventually founded on July 1, 1909.
