WHITE COUNTY.
THIS county is situated in the southeastern quarter of the State, and contains an area of 503 square miles. It is bounded on the north by Wayne and Edwards Counties, east by Posey County, Indiana ; south by Gallatin, and west by Hamilton County. Its history dates back to 1816, and its population, iu 1870, was 16,846. Of these, 11,371 were born in Illinois, 1,617 in Indiana, 896 in Kentucky, 515 in Ohio and 605 in foreign countries. The county is well watered and heavily timhered, and the soil is, for the most part, higlily productive. The principal streams are the Wabash River, on the east, and the Little Wabash, running through the center of the county. The Little Wahash affords slaek-water navigation to Carmi by means of a loek and dam at New Haven, The distance from Carmi to the Ohio River, at the mouth of the Wabash, is only tbirty-eight miles. There are three railroad lines running across the county, viz., tho St. Louis & Southeastern, tbo Cairo & Vincennes and the Springfield & Shawnectown Branch of the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad. The aggregate length of railroad lines in the county is 79 miles. The chief agricul- tural productions aro eorn, wheat, oats, potatoes, tobacco, fruits, butter, sorghum and wool. The manufacturing interests are considerahle. The number of estoblishments, in 1870, was 62; number of steam engines, 18; number of hands employed, 200 ; amount of capital invested, $191,876, and total value of manufactured produets, $509,047. Eight carriage factories pro- duce annually goods to the value of ahout $15,000, seven saw- mills produce about $70,000 worth of lumber, and one woolen factory products to the value of about $12,000. Tho principal church organizations in the county are the Presbyterians, Methodists, Baptists, Christians and Romanists. The 6rst two are by far the strongest. The county contains a few Lutherans and Episcopalians.
Carmi, the county seat, contains a population ef ahout 2,500. It is situated near the geographical eenter of the county, at the crossing of the St. Louis & Southeastern with the Cuiro & Vincennes Railroads. It was organized as a eity, under the general law of the State, in 1873. Beside the general mer- chandise houses, there are two steam and one water flouring- mills, two saw-mills, three hotels and four churches. The navigability of the Little Wabash River renders Carmi a de-
sirable point for the location of manufacturing industries. The location is as healtby as any in Illinois.
Enfold, a town of considerable importance, is situated in the west part of the county, at the crossing of the Southeastern aud Shawneetown Railways.
Grayville, in the extreme northeastern part of the county, on the Cairo & Vincennes Railway, is the most important town in that quarter of the county. It has a large trado with tbe surrounding country.
Norris City is a small town in the southwest quarter of the county, at the crossing of tbe Cairo and Shawneetown Rail- roads. The remaining towns are all places of miuor importance.
WHITESIDE COUNTY.
WHITESIDE COUNTY lies in the northwestern quarter of the State, and has an area of 696 square miles. John W. Stakes located at Prophetstown while the region belonged to Ogle County. Hezekiah Brink settled in Sterling, in 1834. A Mr. Baker was one of the pioneers at Fulton, and Judgo McCoy surveyed the town in 1837. Jason Hopkins made a jackknife elaim at Como in 1832, returning three years later to estoblish it. He afterward sold it to Judge Bigelow, of Peoria. Among the esrliest settlers wero the Wallaces, Messrs. Worthington, Mason, Stevens, Barnett, Kilgour, Cautrell, Cushman, Adams, Harvey, Pilgrim, Nance, Coe, Talbott, Pratt, Woodruff, Walker, Farrington and Rice, Schools were taught in the county as early as 1837. The county was erected in 1839, tbo first Commissioners being Nathaniel G. Reynolds, Elijah Worthington and John B. Dodge. Guy Ray was appointed Clerk ; James C. Woodburn was elected Sheriff; D. B. Young, Probate Justice ; and David Mitchell, Treas- urer. The county seat was first fixed at Lyndon, tben at Sterling, and 6nally at Morrison. As late as the winter of 1835-6, there were 2,000 Indians encamped in the timber be- tween Lyndon and Propbetstown. Burton H. Cartwright organized the Methodist Church at Sterling, in 1836. The svil is exceedingly fertile, and tho surface slightly relling. The Mississippi forms tho western border, and Rock River flows acrass the county. The 6rst railway was the North- Western, completed in 1855. Since then have been built the Rockford, Rock Island & St. Louis, the Western Union, the Chicago & Rook River and the Mendota Branch of the Burlington Road. The population of Whiteside County, in 1870, was 27,503. Sterling is the most important town, and was incorporated in 1857. Its water-power is equal to any demand, and manufac- turing is extensively carried on. Fulton is the great grain and lumher shipping' point of the region, being admirably located for river or rail transportation. Morrison is a band- some place, and is surrounded by a rich agricultural region. Rock Falls lies directly opposite Sterling, and, since 1870, has grown frem one house to a town of 1,000 or more inhabitants, with large paper-mills and foundries. The river at this point was bridged in 1863.
WILL COUNTY.
WILL COUNTY lies in the northeastern quarter of the State, its area being 846 square miles. The precise date of its early settlement cannot be given. In June, 1829, William R. Riee and Miller Ainsly explored the rivers to Hickory Creek, where they found old Col. Sayro and Mr. Brown living in an Indian bark shanty, and Mr. Friend had the body of a log cahin up. These wero the ouly wbites in the county. In the year following, David and Benjamin Maggard settled on the bluff west of Joliet, and Joseph Normon erected a saw-mill fer Mr. Bebington, James, Jesse and Josepb Walker located at Walker's Grove, and Reuben Flagg near Plainfeld. Mr. Emmitt settled at "The Point." Other pioneers were James Glison, William Gongar, Elder Beggs, C. C. Van Horn, Judge Davidson, Jedediah Wooley, Reason Zarley, Capt. R. Stevens, Abraham Franeis, Louis Kercheval, tho Linehargers, William Gooding, Horace Morse and Armstead Runyon. Many of these left the region during the Sae war. Joe Smith, the Mormon, preached as early as 1831, at " The Point." C. C. Van Horn taught tho earliest school in the winter of 1832. At Walker's

Mill, in Plainfield, was sawed the lumber to build the house of Mr. Peck, in Chicago, tho first framo erected in the great metropolis. During the Blackhawk war the settlers erected Fort Beggs, on tho Du Page River. Settlements were made at Joliet in 1833-4, hy Charles Reed, William Hanson, Aaron Moore, Seth Scott, Major Cook, Jesse Cook, J. Zuwatt and others. As early as 1824, Gurdon S. Hubbard sent his goods hy boat through the Des Plaines, which from the present site of Riverside flowed into the Illinois River. Joliet was laid off in 1834, Charles Clement erecting the first building, and at the close of that year the population was fifty. Johu Norman huilt the first grist-mill; John Watkins taught the earliest school; William Blair was the first tinsmith, und Judge John M. Wilson one of the pioneer grain merchants. Will County was set off from Cook in 1836, and Joliet established as the seat of government. Judge Thomas Ford held the first court. The Canal Trustees laid off several town sites in 1827. Work on tho canal was suspended in 1839, aud uutil its resumption, in 1841, hard times prevailed. Eggs sold for three cents per dozen, and venison at $1.50 per hundred pounds. April 23, 1848, the canal hoat " Gen. Thornton" reached Chicago from La Salle. The Rock Island Road was completed to Joliet in Octo- ber, 1852, and the Alton Road from St. Louis in 1857. Work was commenced upon the Penitentiary in the following year. Will County had, in 1870, a population of 43,013. Joliet was incorporated in 1852, C. C. Van Horn being the first | Mayor. The leading feature of industry is the stone quarries, which employ nearly one thousand men. There are in the eity no less than eleven artesian wells in successful operation, The buildings of the iron aud steel works cover over three acres of ground, and the institution is said to be the second of its elass in the United States. Other large interests ore brick, lime, cem- ent and brewing. The population is nearly 10,000. Lockport lies on the Alton Road and the canal, has three large elevators and several manufactories, also a high school which cost $45,000. Wilmington lies on the Kankakee, has an unrivaled water-power, and is the depot of an immense eoal trade. Braidwood is a thriving new town in the mining region, em- ploying 3,000 men. Mokena is an important grain-shipping point. Crete is well known for its trade in pressed hay, Monee for its grain shipments, and Channahan for its wagon manufactures. Tho publio school buildings, in almost every town, are greatly ahove the average in elegance and cost
WILLIAMSON COUNTY.
WILLIAMSON COUNTY is in the southern limits of the State, has an area of 432 square miles, was organized from Franklin in 1839. The chief streams are the Big Muddy and the South Fork of the Saline, although the region is well watered. The only railway is the Carhondale & Shawueetown Line, which has as yet been extended only to Marion. The surface is generally undulating, with fine valleys and meadows. To- bacco, wheat, coru, oats, Irish and sweet potatoes aud fruits are the chief products. All kinds of stock thrive, and thero are considerable exports. Sandstone abounds, eoal heds under- lie the greater part of the county, and coal mining forms an important hranch of industry. In the woods near Marion is a natural sand bank. Marion, the county seat, has a population of 1,500, with large woolen and flour mills. Crainville, ou the railway, contains 250 inhabitants. The other principal village is Blairville. Of the population of the county, amounting hy ceusus of 1870 to 17,329, 11,686 were natives of the State, 898 of Kentucky, and 163 of foreign lands. There were then in the county 128,448 acres of improved land, and the value

of live stock was 8938,097. There were threo miuing estab- lishments, employing 259 men, with a capital of 8272,300, paying annually wages of $103,900, and with a product of $189,180. The number of farms of all sizes is 2,546. Number of religious organizations, 26 ; the Methodists leaning in number. The public school system is in excellent order.
Williamson County has of late been quite noted for lawless- ness and murders, arising from feuds which have for a long time existed hetween some of the residents of the county. Many prominent citizens wero assassinated, and the inbabitants were for a long time powerless eitber to protect the peaceable or punish the lawless. Proof, however, was obtained in 1875 sufficient to conviot and punish tho ringleaders, and the county at the present time is as quiet and peaceful as any in the State, and bids fair to continue so.
The county is rectangular in shape, being 18 miles from north to south, and 24 from enst to west. It is bounded on the north hy Franklin County, on the east by Saline, on tho south by Johnson and Union, and on the west by Jackson Counties. The Cairo & Vincennes Railroad cuts tho southeast corner at Stonefort. The number of townships is twelve.
WINNEBAGO COUNTY,
WINNEBAGO is one of the northern tier of counties, and contains 540 square miles. A fur trader, named Mack, was the first to reside in this region. He lived at Bird Grove, near the present town of Rockton, in 1829, and married a squaw to insure his safety, leaving 1835. Germanicus Kent and Thatcher Blake erected a mill at the mouth of Pine Creek in 1834. In the following spring, Daniel S. Haight built his cabin on what is now State street in East Rockford, and his wifo was the earliest white woman in the region. Other early settlers were Samuel Brown, Richard Montague, Wm. P. Wheeler, Judge S. M. Church, Richard Hogaboom, Phineas M. John- son, S. R. Lewis, E. Wyman, James A. Pike, Nathaniel Loomis, James Sayre, James Boswell, John Vance, Charles Oliver, John Caton, Charles Hall, Milton Kilbourne, Luke Joslyn, Israel Morrill, Ephraim and William Summer, David A. Holt, Nelson H. Salisbury, Newton Campbell, Jolin Roht, Edward Smith, Alonzo Corey, James B. Lee, Robert J. Cross, Isaao Adams, Thos. Williams, Edmund Whittlesey, Eli Bur- hank,. Mr. Barnahy, the Meads, the Woods and the Enochs. The Winnebago Indians lived on the west side of Rock River, and the Pottawattomies on the east, but all left in 1835. The county was organized from La Salle and Jo Daviess in 1837, the Commissioners being Thos. B. Talcott, Simou P. Doty and Wm. E. Dunhar. Don Alonzo Spaulding was appointed Clerk. The first election was held in Rockford, and 120 votes were polled. The Circuit Court was held in October, 1837, by Hon. Daniel Stone, James Mitchell being Clerk. S. L. Hall and others obtained a ferry charter in 1840. The first train passed through Rockford in 1852, over tho nld Galena Road. Tbe surface of the county is mostly rolling prairie, and it is well timbered and well watered. Corn is the staple crop. The Rock River gives water-power second to none in the State. The manufacturing interests are large and varicd. The popula- tion of the county was 29,301 in 1870, of whom 6,713 are of foreign birth, and 5,029 natives of New York, Rockford lies on both sides of Rock River, and was originally called Mid- way, heing equidistant from Chicago and Galena. The earli- est dam was constructed in 1844, but replaced hy the present one in 1853. A city charter was obtained in 1851. Rockford is one of the very best manufacturing towns in the State, chief among these enterprises being the reaper and watch factories.
It has a ladies' seminary, numerous handsome churches and residences, and nearly 15,000 inhabitants. Rockton has also a fino water-power aud several manufactories. Pecatonica was laid out in 1852, and is a grain and lumber point, and Winnchago has a considerable grain trade. The county has 241,373 acres of improved land, and 37,238 of woodland. The valuation of live stock is placed at $1,732,461. The geology is of the simplest character, the quaternary deposits being underlaid by tho galena, blue and buff limestones, all the latter furnishing stone adapted for building and mason work. Along Rock River may be found Indian antiquities in abundance.
WOODFORD COUNTY.
THIS county lies near the center of the State, just northeast of the city of Peoria, and having for its western boundary that expansion of the Illinois River known as Peoria Lake. It contains 533 square miles, is situated in the northern seetion of the great coal field of Illinois, and embraces prairio soil of great fertility, and well watered.
This is not one of the oldest counties in the State, there he- ing, as late as 1831, but twenty-five white families within its territory, and its nrganization not being effected until 1841, Thomas Bulloek leading the movement.
Among its pioneers we find the names of Peter Engel, Ben. jamin Williams, George Kingston, Daniel, Solomon and Will- liam Sowards, C. D. Banta, John Brickler, Henry Sowards, John Engel, John Sharp, the Gengerichs, the Belsleys, the Meekses, Thos. A. McCord and Messrs. Tucker, Mitchell and Davenport.
The matter of township organization met with some opposi- tion, eliciting speeches against it from Abraham Lincoln, at various places. The first church organization effected was the Episcopalian, at Metamora, of which Rev. Mr. Kellogg was Rector.
The first railway within its boundaries was the famous Illi- nois Central, since succeeded hy the Toledo, Peoria & Warsaw, tho Chicago, Pekin & Southwestern, and the Western Division of the Chicago & Alton Railroad. The county has several thriving villages : Metamora, the county seat, said to possess the finest park in the State, excepting those of Chicago; Minonk, an important coal entrepot, of 1,500 inbabitants; Eureka, of 2,000, and containing a college, and El Paso, larger than the others, an important station on the Illinois Central at its intersection with the T., P. & W. R. R., and growing rapidly. Other points are Benson, Woodford, Panola, Spring Bay, Washburn, Cazenovia, Cruger, Bowling Green, Roanoke, Sccor, etc.
In 1870, the population of the county was 18,956, about 20 per cent. beiug of foreign birth. There were 225,504 acres of improved land; value of faruis, $9,742,750; of all live stock, $1,665,830; product of spring wheat, 178,139 bushels; of winter wheat, 108,307; of corn, 2,154,185 bushels; oats, 744,581 bushels; barley, 57,776 bushels; potatoes, 87,994 busbels; butter, 305,326 pounds.
In industrial pursuits, beside eight flouring-mills, with a pro- duet of $232,850; ten carriage and wagon establishments, produeing $40,960, and nine saddlery and harness concerns, product $30,000, there is a large and increasing coal interest, tho deposit being reached by shafts of from 200 to 770 feet in deptli, and heing of fine quality, with but small percentage of sulphur. The hottom lands along the Mackinaw Creek and Illinois River are to a great extent too sandy and too muel inundated to be of much practical use, hut when otherwise they equal in productiveness the finest prairie soil.
