Encyclopedic overview
De Queen (/ˈdiː kwiːn/ DEE-kween) is a city in and the county seat of Sevier County, Arkansas, United States. The population was 6,105 at the 2020 census. The placename is the anglicization of the family name of the Dutch merchant and railway financier, Jan de Goeijen (1861–1944). De Goeijen was reportedly rather unhappy with the deformation of his name.
