MANHATTAN TOWNSHIP.


The old township of Trenton, set off as a precinct in 1836, embraced the present towns of Manhattan and Green Garden. In 1850, under the law authorizing township organization, Trenton sent William Nelson as representative on the Board of Supervisors, and in 1851 and 1852 conferred that honor on M. Bailey. In 1849 William Bissett was commissioned justice of the peace. The western half of Trenton was set off in 1852 as a separate township, under the name of Manhattan. In 1853 John Young was elected supervisor. He has been succeeded in that office by Clark Baker, 1854-55; John Young, 1856-60; Clark Baker, 1861-62; G. A. Buck, 1863-64; J. E. Baker, 1865-69; G. A. Buck, 1870-73; Stephen Robinson, 1873-74; Clark Baker, 1875-1883; Stephen Robinson, 1883, and Clark Baker, 1884. The township officers elected in 1884 are: Clerk, John Locklie; assessor, Fred E. Rowly; collector, Michael Keefe.


The assessed valuation in 1883-4 was $406,819, of which sum lands claimed $360,058; lots, $1,995, and personal property, $44,766. The tax levy was $9,159.89, of which $2,548.95 was for school purposes. The population in 1880 was 930. The amount expended by the commissioner of highways in 1883-4 was $3,377.27.


The pioneers were Orrin Stevens who kept a tavern at Five Mile Grove in 1883-4. Jerrod Gage and Edward Perkins came in 1834; Ephraim, Orrin, Pliny, and Ephraim, Jr., Perkins came in 1835; Mr. Gage, Sr., and family, Hiram Harvey, also came in 1835. For over a decade there were no additions to the settlement. In 1848 Bryan Garrivan and his son, Martin Bergin, William and Charles Bissett, William Nelson, Freeman Gay arrived. Samuel and Stephen Bowen, John Borders, T. Cunningham, first blacksmith, John Young, Mansfield Young, M. Bailey, came in 1849. Clark Baker, in 1850; Hiram Olney, in 1854; George A. Buck, in 1856; James Cunningham, 1857; John W. Smith, 1858. A few other names are credited to the early settlers' period in other sections of this work.


The Protestant Episcopal Church society erected a house of worship in the township in 1857, at a cost of $1,500. Five years previous to that time a school-house was built, which was also used by many of the religious societies as a house of wor- ship. The Catholics of Manhattan worship in their churches at Joliet.

from New York, 1836; William Kinney and J. E. Philips, 1837.


Shortly after the arrival of Otis Phillips, in 1836, he opened a school at the Grove in his own cabin. In 1854 there were four school buildings, and at this time there were four hundred and seventy-two school children under twenty-one years old. One of these house was built at Monee in 1854 with Miss Margaret Wilson teacher. In 1872 the Monee Academy build- ing was erected by Janzen & Stassen, with Professor Janzen in charge. In 1858 the German Lutheran Church building was erected, at a cost of $1,500. The society was formed by the Reverend William Shaefer in 1857. The congregation num- bers between three and four hundred. The Catholic Church was established here in 1866 by Reverend Charles Steisaberger, and the church building erected in 1868. The Congregational Church was founded here in 1861, by Reverend W. B. Atkinson, and a house of worship erected in 1866. This was followed in 1868 by the Methodist Episcopal society. That year the society was organized by Reverend Mr. Ross, and the church building erected, at a cost of $1,500. The Baptist, Universalist, and a few other denominations are represented here.


Monee Village .- This village was platted in 1853 for August Herbert, on section 21, where he located 160 acres in 1849, under a land warrant granted to him for services in the Mexican war. In 1852 he sold to the Illinois Central railroad com- pany a tract of forty acres, which was also platted, and both form the village. The first house was brought hither by Simeon Abbot, in 1852. In 1853 the owner of the town built a house, which now forms a part of Kittering's hotel. Later in 1853 O. B. Dutton built a store, and here a post-office was opened the same year, with Dutton postmaster. Three years later the Koenig & Kohler steam grist-mill was erected. This was fol- lowed by the building of grain warehouses, stores, the Holland wind-mill, and dwellings, until Monee became one of business railway hamlets brought into existence by the Illinois Central. The village was incorporated in 1874, and the first election of village officers was held December 5, 1874, when the following were chosen trustees: H. Hoffman, Charles Plagge, Philip Vol- mar, Christ Schomstedt, August Schiffer, and E. Weringk, with Ed. Weringk, president, and W. F. Hutchinson, clerk. With the exception of a few years, Ed. R. Freese has served as village clerk since 1876.


Monee Lodge, No. 660, I. O. O. F., was organized April 8, 1878, with Ed. R. Freese, W. D. Cox, Adam Vatter, Charles Merz, and G. H. Leuhrs, charter members. The membership at present is thirty-five.


The only newspaper ever published here was the Eagle, issued in 1861, by J. G. Scott, and continued until 1864.
