Book excerpt: In 1673, Louis Jolliet and Fr. Jacques Marquette were the first Europeans to explore the Mississippi River and the Illinois River valleys. With their canoes loaded with furs, pelts, and other goods on their return trip to Montreal, their explorations through much of the interior of Illinois included encounters with Native American tribes and took them through what is now Grundy County. Over 150 years later, the first permanent residents, including William Marquis, began settling and farming in the area. While the chief occupation of the residents is agriculture, the county also has the Illinois River and the Illinois and Michigan Canal that pass through its northern sections, as well as the Rock Island and the Chicago and Alton Railways. With communities rich in history and small-town charm, Grundy County continues to draw visitors and residents to its towns, parks, museums, rivers, and lakes. Grundy County attempts to reveal this unique county and its sense of community and pride.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Grundy County: Treating of Its Transformation From the Heart of the Wilderness of Yesterday, to the Heart of the Mighty Nation of Today; A Tribute to the Pioneer and Something of the Men Who Are Making the Grundy County of Tomorrow The purpose of this book is not only to narrate events, but to portray pioneer life; to call up our grandfathers in their picturesque attire, with their old - fashioned manners and quaint dialect, and have them show us over their log cabins; to see their rude furniture; to sit with them at the table, and by the fireplace; and to take a bird's eye view of the dense forests and broad prairies of Grundy County sixty years ago. And in the pioneer life of this county is an epitome of the pioneer life of the state. None too soon is this work undertaken. Even now we see as through a glass, darkly, the county's earliest history. The few old pioneers who have seen the twilight of its dawn are now far in the twi light of the evening of life. Soon such a work would be impossible. And I feel that there is need of a book of this kind; that it should be read by young as well as old. Every educator knows the value of the study of his tory - the study of the progress of the human mind and of the advance of the human race. But should we know more of the manners and customs of the Greeks than of our grandfathers? I think it is as essential to have a clear knowledge of the home life of the early Missourians as of the early Macedon ians.
