HistoryCrawford County was formed in 1818. Some say it was named for William H. Crawford, who was U.S. Treasury Secretary in 1818. Others say it was named for Col. William Crawford,[3] who fought in the French and Indian War and Revolutionary War, and who was burned and scalped by Indians in 1782 in what is now Wyandot County, Ohio. The county seat was in Leavenworth for several decades but eventually moved to English.[4] Bands of "White Caps" terrorized the county in the late 1880s, according to a report by Attorney General Louis T. Michener. Blacks and others they disliked were forced out; victims both male and female were severely whipped or whipped.[5] Climate and weather{{climate chart|English, Indiana |21|41|3.68 |24|48|3.50 |33|59|4.79 |41|69|4.73 |49|77|5.06 |59|85|4.80 |63|88|4.24 |61|87|3.89 |53|81|3.56 |41|70|3.13 |34|57|4.35 |25|46|3.99 |float=right |units=imperial |clear=both |source=The Weather Channel[6]}} In recent years, average temperatures in English have ranged from a low of {{convert|21|°F}} in January to a high of {{convert|88|°F}} in July, although a record low of {{convert|-31|°F}} was recorded in January 1977 and a record high of {{convert|104|°F}} was recorded in July 1983.

County Council: The county council is the fiscal branch of the county government and controls all the spending and revenue collection in the county. Representatives are elected from county districts. The council members serve four-year terms. They are responsible for setting salaries, the annual budget, and special spending. The council also has limited authority to impose local taxes, in the form of an income and property tax that is subject to state level approval, excise taxes, and service taxes.[7][8]Board of Commissioners: The executive body of the county is made of a board of commissioners. The commissioners are elected county-wide, in staggered terms, and each serves a four-year term. One of the commissioners, typically the most senior, serves as president. The commissioners are charged with executing the acts legislated by the council, collecting revenue, and managing the day-to-day functions of the county government.[7][8]Court: The county maintains a small claims court that can handle some civil cases. The judge on the court is elected to a term of four years and must be a member of the Indiana Bar Association. The judge is assisted by a constable who is also elected to a four-year term. In some cases, court decisions can be appealed to the state level circuit court.[8]County Officials: The county has several other elected offices, including sheriff, coroner, auditor, treasurer, recorder, surveyor, and circuit court clerk. Each of these elected officers serves a term of four years and oversees a different part of county government. Members elected to county government positions are required to declare a party affiliation and to be residents of the county.[8]Crawford County is part of Indiana's 9th congressional district and is represented in Congress by Republican Todd Young. It is also part of Indiana Senate district 47[9] and Indiana House of Representatives district 73.[10] {{Hidden begin|titlestyle = background:#ccccff; |title = Presidential elections results }}
