Twelve other Minnesota counties were created the same day by the Minnesota Territorial Legislature.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Upham |first=Warren |url=https://archive.org/details/minnesotageogra00uphagoog |title=Minnesota Geographic Names: Their Origin and Historic Significance |publisher=Minnesota Historical Society |year=1920 |page=[https://archive.org/details/minnesotageogra00uphagoog/page/n217 198]}}</ref> Freeborn County was named for [[William Freeborn]], an early Minnesota pioneer, merchant, and territorial legislator.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Gannett, Henry |url=https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_9V1IAAAAMAAJ |title=The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States |publisher=Govt.

==Geography==
Freeborn County lies on Minnesota's border with [[Iowa]]. The [[Shell Rock River]] flows southward from Albert Lea Lake in central Freeborn County, crossing into Iowa. Turtle Creek flows eastward through the upper eastern part of the county, crossing into [[Mower County, Minnesota|Mower County]]. The terrain is hilly and etched with drainages and gullies. The [[Le Sueur River]], a [[tributary]] of the [[Minnesota River]], begins in the northern part of the county and flows northward into [[Waseca County, Minnesota|Waseca County]]. The [[Cobb River (Minnesota)|Cobb River]] and the [[Maple River (Minnesota)|Maple River]], two other small rivers, begin in the extreme northwest corner of the county, the Cobb from [[Freeborn Lake]] and the Maple from Penny Lake. Both run generally northwest, emptying into the LeSueur River, just upstream from where the LeSueur empties into the Minnesota River, on the western edge of [[Mankato, Minnesota|Mankato]]. Most of the available land is devoted to agriculture.<ref name="FCM">[https://www.google.com/maps/place/Freeborn+County,+MN/@43.632498,-93.475557,10.75z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x87f133f7b1a4ab25:0x54bf6f5c1e1604b9!8m2!3d43.6656285!4d-93.3388917 ''Freeborn County MN''  Google Maps (accessed March 8, 2019)]</ref> The terrain generally slopes to the south and east, although the highest point is near the northeast corner, at {{convert|1,296|ft|m|abbr=on}} ASL.<ref>[https://www.daftlogic.com/sandbox-google-maps-find-altitude.htm "Find an Altitude/Freeborn County MN"  Google Maps (accessed March 8, 2019)]</ref> The county has an area of {{convert|722|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|707|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|15|sqmi}} (2.1%) is water.<ref>{{Cite web |date=August 22, 2012 |title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files |url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_27.txt |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141006102023/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_27.txt |archive-date=October 6, 2014 |access-date=October 15, 2014 |publisher=United States Census Bureau}}</ref>

==Government and politics==
From 1932 to 2012, Freeborn County voted for the Democratic candidate in all but five elections, four of which were nationwide Republican landslides (1952, 1956, 1972, and 1980), and the fifth was in 1960 in one of the closest elections in American history. After voting for [[Bill Clinton]] by at least 15% in both 1992 and 1996, against [[George W. Bush]] by at least 10% in both 2000 and 2004, and for [[Barack Obama]] by at least 14% in both 2008 and 2012, the 2016 election saw a dramatic swing to the right, as [[Donald Trump]] won the county by more than 17%. Though his margin of victory slightly shrank to 16% in 2020, his vote share of nearly 57% was the best for a Republican in the county since 1928.
