Iroquois
County was formed from Vermilion County in 1833. It borders the State
of Indiana to its east, and a strange slice of Ford County to its west.
Perhaps the politicians who sliced up Vermilion County were doing a bit
of "jerry-mandering?" It would be worth your while to look at
Michael Hebert's County
Maps of Illinois, 1790 - Present. Just because something was in
Iroquois County in 1833 does NOT mean it is in Iroquois County NOW. Ford,
Will and Kankakee Counties were further carved out of Iroquois and unorganized
Vermilion Counties after 1833. |
