STORY OF HENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS
Lying just east of the great Quad Cities metropolitan area of upper Illinois,
with almost all of its 826 square miles of level land used for either commercial
farming or commercial livestock raising, Henry County is today not only a leading
agricultural county of the Prairie State but is also of importance as a manufactur-
ing locality. Its Kewanee steam boilers are as familiar throughout America as are
its corn planters and other farm machines and implements. And it was a Henry
County inventor, Vincent Bendix, who gave to the world that other and most useful
product, the automobile self-starter.
Aside from its direct and indirect material contributions, however, Henry
County is of interest for its rich historical background and for its numerous native
and adopted sons who became famous authors and artists. Within its borders is
Bishop Hill, site of a pioneer communistic colony established by Swedish immi-
grants and the unique buildings of which are now maintained as historic shrines
by the State of Illinois. In Henry County, also, is the old Jenny Lind Chapel, made
possible by a monetary gift from the celebrated Swedish singer, Jenny Lind.
In addition to such mechanical geniuses as Vincent Bendix and Fred Francis,
the county produced such outstanding literary geniuses as George Fitch, author of
the widely-read "Old Siwash" college stories; Clarence Mulford, creator of the
popular fictional character "Hopalong Cassidy;" Fred D. Glidden (Luke Short),
western story writer; Jonathan Glidden (Peter Dawson), also a western story
writer; and Professor James Weber Linn, discoverer of literary talent and himself
an author of note.
Another leading writer who originated in Henry County is Harry E. Pratt,
author of numerous books on Abraham Lincoln and at present official historian of
the State of Illinois. Not to be overlooked, too, are three distinguished artists of
the county— Olof Krans, Rollin Kirby and Harold Riner. Another genius originating
here was John Crabbe, widely known Negro singer.
INDIAN OCCUPATION
In the days just before white men came to settle in the region that now is
Henry County, there existed here scattered Indian villages of the Sauk and Fox
tribes. Most of these villages were along the Rock River, which forms the north-
west border of present Henry County and which today is sometimes called the
"Hudson of the Midwest." When the first settlers came to upper Illinois after the
opening of the Erie Canal in 1825, they were gradually resisted by Chief Black
Hawk, leader of the northern Illinois tribes.
Born and reared in a Sauk village on the Rock River, not far from present
Henry County, Chief Black Hawk finally became the central figure of the Black
Hawk War of 1832. When that conflict ended and Chief Black Hawk was captured
by the whites, there followed the permanent removal of all Indians from Illinois.
Following his later release by the government, the old war chief retired to a Sauk
reservation on the Des Moines River, in Iowa, and there he died in 1838.
Before his passing, Chief Black Hawk said of the Rock River region in which
he was born and reared: "Rock River was a beautiful country. I loved my towns,
my cornfields, and the home of my people. I fought for it. It is now yours. Keep it
as we did." Today, a towering stone statue commemorating Chief Black Hawk
stands on a bluff above the Rock River near Oregon, Illinois. It was designed by
the late Lorado Taft, famed American sculptor, and presented by him to the State
of Illinois in 1911.
MILITARY TRACT
Long before the Black Hawk War of 1832, and even before Illinois was ad-
mitted to statehood, what is now Henry County lay within a vast part of the public
domain of Illinois set aside by the federal government for veterans of the War of
1812. This was called the Military Tract. It occupied the huge prairie region be-
tween the Illinois and Mississippi rivers and extended upward as far as the north
boundary line of present-day Henry County.
Any veteran of the War of 1812 could have a free quarter-section of land
(160 acres) here if he wanted it. But there were not many who came "west" to
settle on their "prairie quarter;" it seems the hardships of frontier life did not
appeal to them. As a consequence, many ex-soldiers sold their quarter-sections
for $100, or even less, while others traded theirs for a horse, a cow, or a gold
watch.
What happened afterwards was that some of the first settlers in this area had
great difficulty in ascertaining the legal status of the land they had staked out;
they often did not know if their piece was "Congress Land," which they were
entitled to pre-empt, or "Bounty Land," which belonged to some veteran in the
East. Frequently, a "land shark" would turn up as owner, he having bought it for
a small price. These land sharks would then demand an exorbitant price for the
piece of land on which a settler had built his log cabin home and laid out a farm.
TERRITORIAL DAYS
When the Illinois country was separated from Indiana and became a territory
of its own in 1809, there was such a scarcity of population in the new territory
that the whole of it was divided into only two counties. Practically all of the
upper part of the territory, a vast wilderness region in which lay future Henry
Counfy, was set aside as St. Clair County, and the lower, and smaller, part of the
territory (a region of a few towns and settlements established by Southerners) was
set aside as Randolph County.
This situation continued until 1812 when a new county, Madison, was organ-
ized, and this, in turn, occupied nearly all of upper Illinois. And Madison remained
in possession of this widespread region even after Illinois was admitted to state-
hood in 1818. Then came the organization of Pike County in 1821; it embraced all
of the territory west and north of the Illinois River up to the Wisconsin line. Two
years later, Fulton County was established, and it, in turn, embraced the upper
Illinois country, including the site of future Henry County.
Then came the year 1825. On the 13th day of January, in that year, the Illi-
nois state legislature created. nine new counties, and one of these was Henry
County. Although their boundaries were defined and names given them, the nine
new counties, said the legislature, would not begin to function as counties until
they each had a sufficient number of inhabitants and had held formal elections of
county officers. And this was the situation in Henry County until it was formally
organized twelve years later, or in 1837.
When first defined by the state legislature, Henry County extended northward
to the Wisconsin line and included about one-half each of present-day Rock Island,
Whiteside, Carroll and almost all of Jo Daviess counties. But when Henry was
formally organized into a county on March 2, 1837, it was reduced to its present
size.
FIRST SETTLERS
Believed to have been the first settler of Henry County was James Glenn. He
arrived on an April day in 1835 and built a log cabin on the south bank of the
Rock River in what is now Colona Township. He continued to reside in Henry
County until his death in 1877. At first a squatter, as were nearly all other early
settlers of the region, James Glenn later entered his land in the government land
office and hence became rightful owner of his claim.
While Glenn was building his cabin near the Rock River, a covered wagon
arrived on the scene with a man and his family in it. The man was Dr. Thomas
Baker, believed to have been the second settler of Henry County. It appears that
James Glenn was a bachelor, for Dr. Baker is recorded as having brought the first
family to the county. Described as a very lazy individual, Dr. Baker is said to
have sat in his wagon and watched James Glenn build the log cabin. A cabin for
the Baker family, we are told, was not erected until some months afterwards.
"Baker was the laziest white man in Henry County," says Henry L. Kiner in
his informative and diverting History of Henry County, Illinois (published 1910).
"He used to loll around, watching Glenn work, and feeling afflicted at the sight.
It is told of Baker that he once came upon a man making rails on an unusually hot
day. He begged of the man to quit till he got by, as it injured him deeply to see a
person working in hot weather."
But the indolent Dr. Baker did not long remain here. He afterwards moved to
Rock Island and subsequently went across the Mississippi to Missouri, where he
spent his last days. Although recorded as a physician, Dr. Baker's exact status
in the profession of medicine is not revealed to us by local historians.
When James Glenn and Dr. Thomas Baker first came to Henry County in 1835,
they were quickly followed by other newcomers. It is to be recalled that this was
in the period just after the close of the Black Hawk War and, now that the Indians
had been removed from the state, hundreds of settlers were arriving yearly in the
upper part of Illinois.
Shortly after Glenn and Baker staked out their claims, there appeared in the
area one Giles Williams and he is of record as having made the first land entry in
the county, doing so on June 8, 1835- As Williams later made other extensive land
entries in the region, he is believed to have been an Eastern speculator who had
come west to increase his worldly fortune.
LAND SPECULATORS
As a matter of fact, Giles Williams was not the only land speculator in early
Henry County. It seems many Eastern speculators, or their agents, flocked into
the county after the close of the Black Hawk War and bought some of the choicest
tracts in the locality. And very large tracts were acquired by land companies, one
such, the New York Company, obtaining as much as 30,000 acres in the county.
A few of these companies laid out townsites in Henry County. The present
city of Geneseo was established by a group from Geneseo, New York, and another
group from Morristown, New Jersey, first settled Henry County's early Morristown,
once the county's seat of justice. Other early towns in the county founded by
Easterners were Andover and Wethersfield (now Kewanee).
BRANDENBURG SETTLEMENT
One of the earliest settlements in Henry County was that known as the
Brandenburg Settlement. It grew up around the log cabin home of George Branden-
burg, who arrived in the Rock River region about the middle 1830's.In time George
Brandenburg caught the "townsite fever" of the period and laid out a village
around his cabin which he called "Dayton." But it seems that Dayton never be-
came anything more than just the house of George Brandenburg.
And that house soon was a landmark of the county. Located on the road to
Dixon, Illinois, where the government maintained a land office, the Brandenburg
cabin was converted into a wayside inn for the convenience of passing travelers
and George Brandenburg became Henry County's first hotel-keeper. Eventually,
Brandenburg acquired the title of "Judge" and rose to a position of influence in
county affairs. It was in his wayside inn that Henry County held its first election
on June 19, 1837.
WETHERSFIELD COLONY FOUNDED
Noting that the Roman Catholics had already established a number of thriving
settlements in the "western" state of Illinois, a group of influential Easterners
met at Wethersfield, Connecticut, in 1836 and decided to form a Protestant colony
in the then rapidly growing Prairie State. Out of that meeting came the Connecticut
Association, organized to establish "a colony for promoting the cause of education
and piety in the State of Illinois."
That same year, members of the group came west and laid out the town of
Wethersfield, located in the southeast corner of Henry County. We are told that
shares were sold to members for $250 each and that each share gave title to 160
acres of prairie, 20 acres of woodland, and a town lot. The first dwelling here was
a log house built by John Kilverton in the summer of 1836.
If old Wethersfield has since been absorbed by the city of Kewanee, it still
retains something of its comfortable, New England-like atmosphere. When the
Military Tract Railroad (now the Rock Island) was built one mile north of Wethers-
field in 1854, a new settlement grew at the railside and this became the Kewanee
of today. In 1924 old Wethersfield was incorporated into the city of Kewanee.
THE GENESEO COLONY
Another Henry County community established in 1836 by Easterners was the
Geneseo colony, nucleus of the present city of Geneseo. It was formed by colo-
nists from Geneseo, New York. Today, Geneseo is the second largest city in
Henry County, with a population of 4,325. It is located on the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific Railroad and at the junction of US 6 and State 82.
CLEVELAND LAID OUT
Still another community founded in 1836 (one year before Henry County was
formally organized) was Cleveland, located on the south bank of the Rock River
in what is now Hanna Township. It was laid out by Charles Atkinson and James D.
Tabor. The first log cabins in the village were built for Atkinson by James Glenn,
first settler of Henry County, and George Brandenburg. Today, Cleveland village
has a population of 204.
f
FORMAL ORGANIZATION OF COUNTY
As we have seen, Henry was one of nine counties created by the Illinois
state legislature on January 13, 1825- But none of these counties would begin to
function, ruled the legislature, until they had a sufficient number of voters. And
so it came about that in 1837 Henry County had the required number of citizens to
initiate formal organization of a county government.
When this fact was ascertained, a petition was circulated through the county
calling upon the state legislature to pass an enabling act-for the civil organization
of Henry County. This petition was then placed in the hands of Major James M.
Allan, an influential early settler. Mounting his horse at the Brandenburg Settle-
ment, Major Allan, carrying the petition, rode southward through Knoxville, Peoria
and Springfield to Vandalia, which then was the state capitol.
At the end of his 250-mile trip, Major Allan quickly brought his petition
before the state legislature. In' a few days the enabling act was passed by the
state lawmakers and Henry County's first election day was set for June 19, 1837.
The legislature also appointed a commission of three men from outside the county
to select a seat of justice for Henry.
GOVERNOR PATRICK HENRY
When the state legislature named Henry County, it honored the memory of
Patrick Henry, celebrated orator and statesman of the American Revolution and
best known of the governors of Virginia— the state that originally owned the wil-
derness territory that now is Illinois.
It was Governor Henry who uttered two of the America's most famous phrases:
"Give me liberty, or give me death!" and "If this be treason, make the most of
it!" It was Governor Henry, also, who ordered George Rogers Clark into the Illi-
nois country during the American Revolution; a move that brought about the cap-
ture of key British military posts in what later became Illinois and Indiana.
COUNTY'S FIRST ELECTION
In compliance with the legislative enabling act, Henry County held its first
election on June 19, 1837, at the house of George Brandenburg in the Brandenburg
Settlement near the Rock River. When the votes were counted, it was found that
the following had been elected the county's first officers: the Reverend Ithamar
Pillsbury, Phillip K. Hanna and Joshua Browning, county commissioners; Robert
McCullough, sheriff; Joshua Harper, recorder; and Arba M. Seymour, surveyor.
FIRST VOTERS
In the list of Henry County's first voters, we are given the identities of the
county's earliest settlers. Here is the list: George Brandenburg, Thomas Glenn,
James M. Allan, Ithamar Pillsbury, Samuel Sullivan, David Wiley, Washington B.
Colbert, Samuel Withrow, John L. Smith, Thomas R. Saunders, Smith Bennett, John
McLinn, Henry Sullivan, James Withrow, Neely Withrow, George A.Colbert, Edward
G. Hall, Preston Browning and Alfred Beck.
Others on the list are George Tyler, George Goyer, Edward A. Mix, Thomas
Miller, William Hite, Elisha Cone, Cromwell K. Bartlett, William C. Bartlett, Wil-
liam H. Hubbard, John Sullivan, Henry G. Little, Eben Townsend, Albert Jagger,
William S. Woolsey, Adrian Van Winkle, Alfred Ball, Earl P. Aldridge and Stephen
Marshall.
Still others on the list are Anthony Hunt, Solomon Penny, Caleb Pillsbury,
Jesse Woolsey, William Potts, Samuel Clark, Jerome Brittain, Ebnezer Walters,
Joshua Browning, George McHenry, Robert McCullough, James P. Dodge, William
McNavin, Phillip K. Hanna, Joshua Harper, Rufus Hubbard, John P. Hanna, Charles
Atkinson, Roderick R. Stewart, Arba M. Seymour and Reuben Cone.
EARLY PROMINENT CITIZENS
"Many of the gentlemen whose names appear in the foregoing list have fig-
ured somewhat prominently in the history of the county," says The History of
Henry County, Illinois: Its Taxpayers and Voters, published in 1877. "Phillip K.
Hanna and George A. Colbert will be remembered as the earliest Methodist minis-
ters in the county. Ithamar Pillsbury, the Christian gentleman and energetic agent,
was the first Presbyterian minister. James M. Allan has been one of the most
prominent men in the history of Henry County. He was the first clerk of the county,
and in all political, social, military and county seat matters of early days, he was
the most prominent figure, and in later days is known as an energetic, esteemed
and valuable citizen."
The account continues: "George Brandenburg figured as the first landlord of
the county, and has been well and favorably known. Eben Townsend, an aged
gentleman of large experience and observations, of will imperious, strong affec-
tions, manners blunt or bland as circumstances seemed to require, figured in the
affairs of Andover for many years, and was well known to most of the early set-
tlers.
"Roderick R. Stewart, the impartial magistrate, an exact public officer, long
controlled the first and best public house in Geneseo. Henry G. Little has been
called to serve his county in many positions of honor and trust. Jesse Woolsey,
the unobtrusive home man, was, as the upright and trustworthy landlord at Andover,
known to a large share of the gentlemen who attended the early courts at Cam-
bridge. Joshua Harper was the mild and courteous gentleman, the correct business
man, and the faithful legislator."
FIRST COUNTY BUSINESS
At the first meeting of Henry County's commissioners' court (at that time the
ruling body of a county was called a "court" instead of a "board"), a license
was granted to Charles Atkinson, John P. Hanna and George Tyler to conduct a
ferry on the Rock River at the new town of Cleveland. They were charged a fee of
$1.50 for the license. One of the founders of Cleveland, it will be recalled, was
Charles Atkinson.
At that early date, the county commissioners met in the log cabin home of
George Brandenburg at the Dayton townsite Brandenburg had platted, this having
been designated temporary county seat. Another matter soon taken up by the county
commissioners was the laying out of road districts and the appointment of road
district supervisors.
EARLY COUNTY SEATS
In a few months time, another new town in the county, Richmond, was se-
lected as Henry County's first permanent seat of justice. It was located in the »
center of the county and had been laid out earlier by Major James M. Allan. Here,
in 1839, was held the first session of the Circuit Court, presided over by Judge
Thomas Ford (later to become a governor of Illinois).
In that same year, however, a devastating fire levelled most of Richmond,
and the county seat was transferred temporarily to the town of Geneseo. And here
it remained until 1840, at which time the seat of justice, instead of being returned
to Richmond, was set up in another early town of the period, Morristown. This
community had been settled about 1837 and, at the time it became county seat,
consisted of "some ten families scattered over some ten miles of prairie."
CAMBRIDGE BECOMES COUNTY SEAT
In the year 1843 another new town was laid out and given the name of "Cam-
bridge." The founder of the town was the Reverend Ithamar Pillsbury, who, it will
be recalled, was elected one of the county's first commissioners in 1837. When he
first arrived in the county, this "energetic" Presbyterian minister served as agent
of the New York Association in the acquisition of large tracts of Henry County
land.
Almost immediately after Cambridge was established, it was selected as a
new seat of justice for Henry County. There followed the transfer of county busi-
ness from Morristown to the Reverend Pillsbury's community in the center of the
county. There also followed the removal, in 1844, of the courthouse from Morris-
town to Cambridge, the building having been carried to its new site on wagons.
During this process, a wag commented: "Henry County has her county seat on
wheels."
In 1845, however, a new courthouse was completed in Cambridge and this
served for several decades afterwards. When first built, this courthouse, says one
account, was "open for schools, lectures, debating societies, stump speeches,
three-penny shows, class meetings, prayer meetings, Masonic meetings, singing
and dancing schools (the benches were movable) and preaching. Presbyterians,
Congregationalists, Methodists, Baptists and Universalists all worshipped there,
often three of them in one day, at different hours."
BISHOP HILL COLONY
In the south portion of Henry County today lies Bishop Hill State Park, a
four-acre tract in the center of Bishop Hill village containing the unique old build-
ings of a Swedish communist colony established here more than a century ago.
Based on both religious and worldly communism, the Bishop Hill Colony was
founded in 1846 by Eric Janson, a Swedish religious leader. He named it after
Biskops Kulla, the town in Sweden where he was born.
In her pamphlet Bishop Hill: 1846, Margaret E. Jacobson writes: "The com-
munity aspect of the organization meant not only that goods were jointly owned,
but that life was lived on a group basis rather than an individual one." In its
prime, the Bishop Hill Colony had a population of 1,500. As with other "Prairie
Utopias" of the period, however, internal dissension soon arose at Bishop Hill,
and, after Eric Johnson was murdered in 1850, the colony gradually fell apart.
Many of the colonists left and helped to establish the city of Galva in 1854.
Today, Galva is the third largest city in Henry County, with a population of 2,886.
With the colony disbanded, Bishop Hill declined, but some of its principal build-
ings have survived to the present. In the Old Colony Church today are exhibited
many oil paintings by the colony artist, Olof Krans, now considered a leading
American "primitive" painter.
FIRST RAILROADS
An event of the greatest importance in the history of Henry County was the
building, in 1854, of the first two railroads in the locality. One of these, the
Central Military Tract Railroad, was planned as early as 1850. Intended as a link
between Galesburg and Mendota, with its line running through Henry County, the
Central Military Tract "steam road" was slow in getting started; soon after being
completed in 1854 it became a part of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy system.
It was in 1854, also, that the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad was
completed through Henry County. After these roads were built, the county pro-
gressed rapidly in both population and productivity. And it was the coming of
these railroads that resulted in the founding of Kewanee and Galva, two of the
largest cities of the county. Many other towns and villages were built along the
rights-of-way of the new "Iron Horse" form of transportation.
KEWANEE IS FOUNDED
A familiar name throughout America because of the steam boilers long manu-
factured here, Kewanee was platted in 1854, or just after the Central Military
Tract Railroad (now part of the Burlington System) was completed through this
part of Henry County. The founders of the city were Captain Sullivan Howard,
Nelson Lay, Henry G. Little, R. C. Tenney, George A. Morse and Sylvester Blish.
When the railroad laid its tracks one mile north of the old village of Wethers-
field, the men who founded Kewanee were quick to see the advantage of a new
town at this point. In the years following, Kewanee grew rapidly in population,
became a manufacturing and shipping center, and eventually absorbed the village
of Wethersfield, which, as we have seen, was established in 1836.
Today, Kewanee has a total population of 16,821. Not only does it manu-
facture steam boilers but it also produces valves and fittings, pumps, steel build-
ing parts, truck bodies, springs, coal yard equipment, gloves and mittens, trailers
and farm implements and machines. It also serves as the trading and commercial
center of an area embracing Henry and several other nearby counties and totaling
more than 67,000 population.
JENNY LIND CHAPEL
In the village of Andover, just west of the county seat town of Cambridge,
may be found the little Jenny Lind Chapel, an outstanding religious landmark of
Henry County. It was built in 1854 by the Reverend Lars Paul Esbjorn, first pastor
of the Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church of Andover. He was materially aided
in the construction of the chapel by a generous monetary gift from the celebrated
singer, Jenny Lind, popularly known in her time as "The Swedish Nightingale."
FIRST CATHOLIC CHURCH
It was in 1865 that Henry County's first Roman Catholic church, St. Mary's,
was built in Kewanee city. This little frame house of worship not only served
parishioners in Kewanee but in nearby Galva and other towns and villages in the
southeast portion of the county. From this pioneer church there evolved the present
Visitation Roman Catholic Church, largest Catholic house of worship in Kewanee
and one of the architectural sights of the city.
ILLINOIS AND MISSISSIPPI CANAL
Running through the northern portion of Henry County, the old Illinois and
Mississippi Canal (popularly known as the Hennepin Canal) was dug at a cost of
$7,000,000 and, soon after it was completed, fell into disuse because it could not
compete with railroads. The canal starts at Hennepin, in Putnam County, and after
passing through Bureau and Henry counties, empties into the Rock River near the
present city of Green Rock. The old Hennepin Canal is now used only for drainage
and fishing purposes.

NATIONAL HUSKING CONTEST
An event of national interest took place in Henry County in 1932. This was
a national corn-husking contest staged on the farm of Robert A. Peterson, three
miles east of Galva city. A crowd estimated at between 50,000 and 60,000 persons
was present, as were many newsreel cameramen, radio commentators and news-
paper correspondents. The contest was won by Carl Seiler, of Oneida city (Knox
County), who set a new world's record when he husked a net load of more than 36
bushels in one hour and twenty minutes. The last national corn-husking contest
was staged in 1941.
INVENTORS, AUTHORS, ARTISTS
As we have seen, an unusual number of inventors, authors and artists were
either born or lived in Henry County. Of widest interest today is the fact that the
automobile self-starter was invented by the late Vincent Bendix, who was born in
the county and whose father, the Reverend John Bendix, was a leading Methodist
minister of region. Another inventor of the county was the late Fred Francis, of
Kewanee, who made numerous improvements on watches manufactured by the Elgin
Watch Company.
Of the county's numerous authors, one of the best known is Clarence E. Mul-
ford, who lived in Galva city as a boy and who created that popular fictional
character of today "Hopalong Cassidy." Another product of Henry County was the
late George Fitch, author of the widely-read "Old Siwash" college stories in the
Saturday Evening Post. One of his books, Homeburg Memories, tells of his boyhood
in Galva.
Two other former Galva residents are Fred D. Glidden, who under the name
of "Luke Short" has written many western novels, and his brother, Jonathan Glid-
den, who uses the pen name of "Peter Dawson" and who also writes best-selling
novels of western life.
An outstanding discoverer of literary talent, as well as an author in his own
right, was the late Professor James Weber Linn, who left Geneseo city to become
one of the most popular professors at the University of Chicago. His aunt was the
late Jane Addams, famed American social reformer and humanitarian. Still another
writer of Henry County is Harry E. Pratt, author of books on Abraham Lincoln and
at present official historian of the State of Illinois.
At Bishop Hill, the nearly 100 paintings of the colony artist, Olof Krans, are
attracting a wider and wider circle of admirers each year. He is now considered by
art critics as one of the foremost of American "primitive" painters. His unique
oils portray life in the Swedish colony; he also turned numerous pictures of Galva
and other Henry County scenes. Another artist of the county was the late Rollin
Kirby, nationally known cartoonist. He was born in Galva in 1875. Still another
native son of Galva was John Grabbe, a celebrated Negro singer.

BISHOP HILL STATE PARK
During the 1930's staff architects of the Historic American Buildings Survey,
a government agency, made scale drawings of all of the old colony buildings at
Bishop Hill. This work was done under the supervision of Earl H. Reed, a leading
Chicago architect who then headed the northern Illinois unit of the Historic Ameri-
can Buildings Survey.
On the completion of the work, copies of the drawings, as well as photo-
graphs and historical notes, were placed in the Library of Congress and the Burn-
ham Architectural Library of the Chicago Art Institute. It was at a later date that
the State of Illinois acquired Bishop Hill and converted it into an historic shrine,
dedicated to the memory of an organized group of people who came to America to
find religious and personal freedom.
HARRY E. PRATT
One of the two Henry County men included in the latest (1955) edition of that
standard reference work, Who's Who In America, is Harry E. Pratt, author and
official historian of the State of Illinois. He was born in the county seat town of
Cambridge on December 16, 1901, a son of Edward and Katie (Hall) Pratt. After
graduating from the University of Illinois in 1923, Mr. Pratt taught in various
schools and then, in 1930, became dean of Blackburn College at Carlinville, Illi-
nois. He afterwards became professor of history at Illinois Wesleyan University.
In 1950 he was appointed historian of the State of Illinois, with headquarters at
Springfield.
ELLIS J. WALLER
In addition to Harry E. Pratt, the latest edition of Who's Who In America
includes the name of Ellis J. Waller, manufacturer and civic leader. He was born
in Kewanee on November 12, 1896, a son of Peter A. and Carrie C. (Peterson)
Waller. After graduating from Princeton University in 1919, Mr. Waller joined the
Boss Manufacturing Company in New York City. He has been president of the
company since 1945. He is also on the board of directors of the Kewanee Hotel
Company, Kewanee Manufacturing Company, Peoples National Bank of Kewanee
and Kewanee Public Hospital.
HENRY COUNTY TODAY
On the basis of latest United States census returns, a statistical profile of
Henry County would show that in 1950 it had a total population of 46,492— an in-
crease of 6.2 over its 1940 figure. This placed it 550th in population rank among
the 3,103 counties of the United States. Its largest city, Kewanee, had a popula-
tion of 16,821.
12
Occupying a land area of 826 square miles, the county's density of popula-
tion was 56 inhabitants per square mile. Of the county's total population, 25,345
were classified as urban dwellers (residents of Kewanee, Geneseo, Galva and
other cities), 11,700 as rural farm dwellers, and 9,447 as rural non-farm dwellers
(residents of towns and villages). There were 4,752 infants under five years of

Under the heading of vital statistics, Henry County in 1950 had 999 births,
550 deaths (including 19 infants), and 443 marriages.
In that same year, family income figures showed there were 12,405 families
in the county (two or more persons related by marriage or blood), and that the
median income of all of these families was $3,091- More than 22 per cent of these
families had an income of less than $2,000, while 17.1 per cent had incomes of
$5,000 or more.
In the field of education, the county had a total of 7,615 young persons be-
tween the ages of seven and seventeen years (school age). There were 5,025

cent of these were enrolled in primary schools. Of the total of 2,195 young persons
between the ages of fourteen and seventeen (high school age), it was found that
88.2 per cent were enrolled in high schools.
Regarding labor statistics, Henry County in 1950 had a potential labor force
of 35,246 (persons fourteen years old and over). Those actually employed, however,
totaled 18,690, of which 82.4 per cent were males and 24.2 per cent females. The
figures showed further that 5,123 were employed in manufacturing and 4,304 in
agriculture. The smallest number, 193, were employed in mining.
In 1950 the county had a total of 15,078 dwelling units(inl940 it had 12,970).
The median number of rooms per unit was given as 5.7. More than 84 per cent were
one-dwelling unit detached structures (including occupied trailers), 51.8 per cent
had hot running water with private toilet and bath, 65.5 were owner-occupied, 74.1
per cent had central heating, 90.9 per cent had mechanical refrigerators, and 98.0
per cent had radios. There were 11,753 non-farm dwelling units and the median
value of these was given as $6,009.
In 1948, when the last United States business census was taken, Henry
County had 598 retail stores which grossed $45,005,000 in sales. It also had 77
wholesale establishments, which grossed $38,150,000 in sales. Furthermore, the
county had 40 manufacturing, plants, and these turned out products in the amount
of $18,356,000.
Under the heading of agriculture, the 1950 figures showed that the county
had a total of 3,062 farms, of which 2,820 were classified as commercial farms.
More than 50 per cent of all farms were operated by tenants. The average value of
land and buildings per farm for all farms was given as $36,259- In 1949, four years
13
after the close of World War II, the value of all farm products sold (crops, live-
stock, poultry, dairy products) was given as $33,465,000.
In 1950, total bank deposits in Henry County (individuals, partnerships,
corporations) amounted to $46,726,000. Total capital of the county's four savings
and loan associations amounted to $16,562,000, with $14,912,000 in first mortgage
loans outstanding.

CITY OF KEWANEE
Largest city of Henry County, and a major manufacturing center of northern
Illinois, is Kewanee, with a population of 16,821. From Kewanee are shipped
steam boilers to all parts of America, as well as valves and fittings, pumps, steel
building parts, truck bodies, springs, coal yard equipment, gloves and mittens,
trailers and farm implements and machines.
Among leading manufacturing plants here, and the number of their employees,
are the Walworth Company, valves and fittings (2,300); Kewanee Ross Corporation,
boilers (800); Kewanee Machinery & Conveyor Company, farm implements (200);
Boss Manufacturing Company, gloves, (300); Kewanee Manufacturing Company,
steel and aluminum (86); Kewanee Headwear Company, caps (100); Wm. Demmler
& Brothers, core-blowing machines (50); and the Martin Machine Company, trail-
ers (60).
In addition to its industrial role, Kewanee is the commercial and trading
center of a large area embracing Henry and other nearby counties and with a popu-
lation estimated at more than 67,000. In the city's central business district are
branches of such national chain stores as A&P, Kroger, National Food, J. C. Pen-
ney Company, Montgomery Ward & Company and Sears Roebuck & Company. The
city is served by the Kewanee Star-Courier, a daily newspaper with a circulation
of 12,669. Just south of the city is located Kewanee Airport.

ALBA TOWNSHIP
ALBA TOWNSHIP
On che eastern border of Henry County lie the fertile acres of Alba Town-
ship, which in 1950 had a total population of 414. There are no towns or villages
in the area. Through one corner of the township flows the old Illinois and Missis-
sippi Canal (Hennepin Canal), no longer used as a waterway. State 78 traverses
the township at its center. It was in 1851 that Alba's first settler, Hugod Golander,
arrived and built a log cabin. He was shortly joined by his nephew, John F. Wen-
nergren. At a later period numerous Swedish farmers settled in the township.

ANDOVER
One of the older villages of the county is Andover, which today has a popu-
lation of 256. It is located in the fertile farming region just west of Cambridge on
State 81. An outstanding sight in the village is the historic old Jenny Lind Chapel
of the Swedish Evangical Lutheran Church, an edifice built in 1854 and made
possible by a monetary gift from the famous Swedish singer, Jenny Lind.
Andover village was platted in 1841 by the Reverend Ithamar Pillsbury, who
was both a Presbyterian minister and a land agent. Associated with him were
Eben Townsend and E. A. Mix. The village is situated in Andover Township, with
a total population of 834. The first Swedish immigrant in the township, as well as
in Henry County, is believed to have been a sailor named Sven Nelson, who arrived
about 1840.

BURNS TOWNSHIP
BURNS TOWNSHIP
Just northwest of Kewanee city lie the fertile acres of Burns Township,
which today has a total population of 614. There are no towns or villages in the
township. Serving the locality is State. 81, a highway that leads to Kewanee on
the east and Cambridge on the west. First settlers of the township were the Carson
brothers, John, William and Samuel. They arrived in the fall of 1836 after traveling
overland in a covered wagon from Ohio.

CORNWALL TOWNSHIP
CORNWALL TOWNSHIP
Northeast of Cambridge may be found the level, productive acres of Cornwall
Township, a locality entirely devoted to agriculture. There are no towns or vil-
lages in the township. In 1950 it had a total population of 504. The township is
principally drained by Mud Creek and its tributaries. Although Cornwall Township
was settled as early as 1837 by James Southworth and John Taylor, it did not
reach full development until the arrival of the first railroads in Henry County.

GREEN RIVER
In the northwest part of the county, at a crossroads point where touch the
boundary lines of Colona, Edford and Hanna townships, lies the village of Green
River, with a population of 110. It is served by the postoffice at Geneseo city.
Just north of the village flows the old Illinois and Mississippi Canal (Hennepin
Canal), now no longer used as a waterway. Green River is located on the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific Railroad. It lies mainly in Edford Township, which has a
total population of 539. Two distinct waves of settlers came to the township in
early days. First to arrive were "Yankees" from eastern states, who came about
1852. A second group of settlers, mostly German immigrants, came about twenty
years later.

GALVA CITY
Third largest city of Henry County is Galva, with a population of 2,886— an
increase of 2.6 per cent over its 1940 population. It is a manufacturing center of
considerable importance in this part of Illinois, producing oil burners, pumps,
electrical conduit fittings, foundry products, paper cups and display racks. It is
also a shipping center for corn, oats, soybeans and livestock.
Galva was laid out in 1854 when the first railroad was built through the area.
The founders of the city were William L. Wiley and his cousin, James M. Wiley,
both Vermonters. They were assisted in establishing the city by Swedish immi-
grants of the nearby religious-communist colony at Bishop Hill, which then was
disintegrating. The name of Galva is an Anglicized form of Gefle, a Swedish sea-
port from which many of Galva's first settlers came.
The old Bishop Hill Colony, now an historic shrine maintained by the State
of Illinois, is located about five miles northwest of Galva. The city is situated at
the junction of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroads and on US 34 and State 17. It is the only community in Galva
Township, which has a total population of 3,449.

GENESEO
Second largest city of Henry County, and one of the oldest in the county, is
Geneseo, with a population of 4,325— an increase of 13.1 per cent over its 1940
population. The city was founded in 1836 by a group of colonists from Geneseo,
New York. Just north of the city flows the old Illinois and Mississippi Canal
(Hennepin Canal), now no longer used as a waterway.
Geneseo is situated on the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad and at
the junction of US 6 and State 82. It is an important shipping center for grain,
hybrid seed corn, livestock and poultry. The oldest newspaper in the county is the
Geneseo Republic, a weekly which now has a circulation of 1,885- It was founded
in 1856. At the present time it is being edited and published by J. H. Terry.
Just north of the city, on the old Illinois and Mississippi Canal, may be
found the Geneseo Fish Hatchery, occupying a fourteen-acre tract. Geneseo city
is the only community in Geneseo Township, which has a total population of 5,094.

LORAINE TOWNSHIP
LORAINE TOWNSHIP
In the north pdrtion of the county, not far from the Rock River, may be found
the thriving farms of Loraine Township, which in 1950 had a total population of
460. There are no towns or villages in the township. Through it run State 92 and a
portion of the Old Indian Boundary Line. Loraine Township derives its name from
Lorraine, France, where some of the township's earliest settlers originated. First
settler of the township was Deacon Kemis, who arrived in 1836. Soon afterwards
came William T. Crozier, David Hiller, Rudolph Urich, Asa Blair and the Arnett
family.

OPHIEM
Southwest of Cambridge, on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad, is
located the village of Ophiem, with a population of 100. Through it runs US 150.
The village was founded more than seventy-five years ago. When first established
it was called Edwardsville. One early (1877) description of Ophiem states: "It has
an excellent trade in grain and farm products. One good store, a few shops, an
elevator and a lumber yard comprise the business interests." Today, Ophiem is
the principal community in Lynn Township, which has a total population of 654.
383
LYNN CENTER
Another community in Lynn Township is the village of Lynn Center, with a
population of eighty. It is located on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad
and on State 81. Just east of it lies the old village of Andover (in Andover Town-
ship).

BISHOP HILL
For detailed' references to the old Swedish religious-communist colony of
Bishop Hill, see the "Story of Henry County" at the beginning of this book. The
colony is now an historic shrine maintained by the State of Illinois. The unique
buildings of the colony are at the center of Bishop Hill village, which today has
a population of 202. It is located about five miles northwest of Galva city and just
north of US 34. Bishop Hill village is the principal community in Weller Township,
with a total population of 817. First settlers of the township were the Bishop Hill
colonists, who came in 1846.
4<«
NEKOMA
Another community in Weller Township is the village of Nekoma, located
southwest of Bishop Hill at the junction of state highways 82 and 17. It has a
population of sixty and is served by the postoffice at nearby Woodhull. Just west
of the village is Litton Field, one of the county's several airports.

THE ILLINOIS STATE FLAG
592
1
STATE FLAG OF ILLINOIS
lunois' State Flag was officially adopted on July 6, 1915, after a vigorous
campaign by Mrs. Ella Park Lawrence, State Regent of the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution.
Early in 1912, Mrs. Lawrence began visiting local D. A. R. chapters throughout
Illinois seeking cooperation in promoting selection of an official State banner to
place in the Continental Memorial Hall in Washington, D. C. In 1913, Mrs.
Lawrence offered a prize of $25.00 to the Illinois D. A. R. chapter submitting the
best design for the banner. She also wrote to members of the General Assembly
seeking their cooperation.
Four judges were then selected to choose the winning design. Thirty-five
designs were submitted and the Rockford Chapter entry was chosen as Illinois'
future emblem.
State Senator Raymond D. Meeker introduced the bill which was to legalize
the flag. After passage in the Senate it was pushed through the House of Represen-
tatives, despite an overcrowded calendar.
The measure automatically became a law July 6, 1915, when the Governor
failed to affix his signature to the bill.
The first official flag, made in Washington, D. C, was three by five feet in
size, of white silk. Flags were given by Mrs. Lawrence to Secretary of State;,
Daughters of the American Revolution in Illinois; National Society Daughters of
the American Revolution in Illinois; National Society Daughters of the American
Revolution (to hang in Memorial Continental Hall. Washington. D. C); Rebecca
l'arkc Chapter, Galesburg and the Illinois State Historical Society.
Visitors to Springfield cannot fail to notice the State Banner flanking the
Stars and Stripes in the Rotunda at the State House. In the same juxtaposition it
appears in the office of the Secretary of State. It is flown on ceremonial days by
numerous patriotic bodies throughout the State. For officials and the public alike
it stands as a reminder of our greatness as a State and our pride in our membership
in the United States of America.

To estimate the number of plants required for an
acre at any given distance, multiply the distance
between the rows by the distance between the
plants, which will give the number of square feet
allotted to each plant and divide the number of
square feet in an acre (43.560) by this number.
The quotient will be the number of plants required.

GRAIN MEASURE.
To find the capacity of a Bin or Wagon-bed;
multiply the cubic feet by 8 (tenths). For great
accuracy, add \i of a bushel for every 100
cubic feet.
To find the cubic ft., multiply the length,
width and depth together.
Find the capacity of a Bin 4 ft. wide, 5 ft.
deep, and IS ft. long.
To get the exact answer 1 bu. is added for
the 300 cubic ft.
4x5x15 =300 cubic ft.
.8
Ans. 240.0 bus.
240 + 1 =241 bus. exact ans.
How many bus. will a Wagon-bed hold, 10
ft. long, 3 ft. wide, 18 in. or \y a ft. deep?
&g- A Bed 10 ft. long, 3 ft. wide will hold
2 bu. for every in. in depth.
1^x3x10 =45 cubic feet
.8
Ans. 36.0 bus.
EAR CORN MEASURE.
To find the contents of a Corn crib; multiply
the cubic feet by 4 and divide the product
by 9\
Find the contents of a Corn crib 18 ft. long,
7 ft. wide and 8 ft. high.
•NOTE — This allows 2M cubic ft. for a bu.
It is the rule most generally used, and will hold
out in ordinary good corn, even if measured at
the time it is cribbed.
7x8x18 = 1008 cubic feet

9)4032
Ans. 448 bus.
TWO SIMPLE RULES FOR FINDING
THE CAPACITY OF ROUND BINS,
IN BUSHELS.
Where the dimensions measure exactly in
feet; multiply the diameter by the diameter,
multiply by the depth, multiply by .63.
Where the dimensions measure in inches;
multiply the diameter by the diameter, multi-
ply by the depth, multiply by .000365.
TO FIND THE QUANTITY OF GRAIN
WHEN HEAPED ON THE FLOOR
IN THE FORM OF A CONE.
Square the depth and square the slant height,
in inches. Take their difference and multiply
by the depth, in inches. Multiply this product
by .00048. The result will be the co'ntents, in
bushels.
TO FIND THE QUANTITY OF GRAIN
WHEN HEAPED AGAINST A
STRAIGHT WALL.
Square one-half of the depth and proceed as
in the previous rule.

RULES FOR COMPUTING INTEREST
The following is an approximate way to estimate the intereit on any principal (or any number
of days. When the principal contains cents, mark off four places from the right of the result to
express the interest in dollars and cents. When the principal contains dollars only, mark off
two places.
2% — Multiply the principal by the number
of days to run, and divide by 180.
4% — Multiply the principal by the number
of days to run and divide by 90.
5% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 72.
6% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 60.
7% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 52.
8% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 45.
9% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 40.
10% — Multiply by number of days and di-
vide by 36.
