Book excerpt: Vermilion County, located in the eastern part of the state of Illinois, was named after the Vermilion River that runs through it. The saline springs and the rich silt loam soil attracted a farming community, while the plentiful abundance of game offered a way to feed families as homes were built and land cleared for planting. The Vermilion County Conservation District operates four conservation district parks: Forest Glenn Preserve, Heron County Park, Kennekuk Cove County Park, and Lake Vermilion County Park. Three more areas are managed by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources: Kickapoo State Recreation Area, Harry "Babe" Woodyard State Natural Area, and the Middle Fork State Fish and Wildlife Area. Besides being a huge agricultural area, many notable people were born in Vermilion County--Dick and Jerry Van Dyke, Donald O'Conner, Gene Hackman, Bobby Short, astronaut Joseph R. Tanner, Frank Gustine, and Thad Matta, to name a few.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XLIV. HEROES AND DISTINGUISHED PEOPLE. J. G. CANNON--W. J. CALHOUN--J. W. WILKIN--MRS. MARY HARTWELL CATHERWOOD--HIRAM W. BECKWITH--GURDON HUBBARD--SAMUEL M'ROBERTS--REV. JAMES ASHMORE HARVEY SOWDOWSKY RT. REV. VICAR GENERAL O'REILLY-- COL. O. F. HARMON--J. C. DAVIS--MICHAEL KELLEY. Every community, however small, has its representative heroes. Sometimes they are heroes of war, and sometimes they are the no less heroes of peace. Vermilion County has these, and the list is much longer than limited space will permit of naming. This is the reason that in compiling this list, local celebrities have been passed and only those whose influence was away from, as well as at, home, have been mentioned. This list of distinguished people is, as a matter of course, headed by the name of Speaker Cannon. Danville and Vermilion County are both better known as being the home of Speaker Cannon, than in any other way. Mr. Calhoun is a conspicuous figure in the world of affairs, and his citizenship, although more remote, is none the less valid. Judge Wilkin was a citizen of whom any community would be proud even though he had not won the distinction he did. Vermilion County has not been without people distinguished in the world of letters, and the writings of Mary Hubbwell Catherwood has made her home place distinguished. Mr. Hiram Beckwith was a recognized historian of merit. The state of Illinois loves to do him honor. Gurdon Hubbard is a representative of the past whose efforts should not be forgotten. Samuel McRoberts is one of the forgotten statesmen of that period of national life which tried men's souls. He represents Illinois as United States Senator. Aside from the field of politics and letters, there have been other walks in life where...
