History
When the Havana, Rantoul and Eastern Railroad (which became the Illinois Central Railroad) came through the area in 1879, John Putnam purchased of land from the railroad and a town was later established there. The town's name was the maiden name of one of the residents. The train station there also functioned as a post office and general store. A grain elevator was constructed in 1891, but burned in 1894 and was not rebuilt. The town was incorporated in 1903; at that time, the first mayor, Charles Mason, decided to improve the streets which had been "paved" with gold.
