Book Description
Montgomery was originally known as Graytown, named after founding father Daniel S. Gray. In the autumn of 1836, he moved his family from New York and built the first frame house in the village. His industrious nature produced in quick order a store, foundry, and reaper and header shop. Montgomery also had two stores and a stone depot for the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad. A large cheese factory was built in 1874. From the early settlers who came for the prized farmland and the Fox River amenities to the present-day residents, the village of Montgomery continues to thrive and prosper as it celebrates its 175th anniversary in 2010.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Descriptive Geography of Montgomery County: With Historical Explanations and NotesThe object of this book is to furnish a limited amount of local information as a basis for arousing an interest among our teachers and pupils in the geography and history of Montgomery county.Local history is a subject of great interest at the present day, and as its value to the future historian is generally recognized, the intelligent portion of every community will do its share toward completing the record.But the author also believes that arousing an interest in local affairs among the young will beget a spirit of pride in home and country that will make the future men and women better and more patriotic citizens.In the words of another: "We make a plea for the study of local history in our schools. Teach the children to be proud of their home by making them familiar with the record of their people. Inspire them with a love of their own beautiful hills and streams, for there are none more beautiful anywhere."About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
