About the County / Hendry County Inmate Search

The county is located in the heartland of Florida. It borders Lake Okeechobee and contains 1,153 square miles of land and 37 square miles of water. Before Europeans arrived in Florida in the 16th century, the area was primarily covered by the Everglades.

The first modern-day settlements in the county consisted of US military posts built during the Seminole Wars. The county was established in 1923 after a vote by the Florida Legislature and named after Francis A. Hendry. Upon the county’s establishment, a temporary jail was erected in LaBelle, and the Everett Hotel served as a temporary courthouse.
