History
Lima was platted in 1833, the year that the first store was established in the village, by Dr. Joseph Orr. Orr named the village Lima after Lima, Peru, on the suggestion of a Peruvian friend. In 1839 a large number of Latter-day Saints settled at this location. An LDS stake was organized here in 1840 and a conference here in 1841 had more than 400 Latter-day Saints presence. The Latter-day Saints left in 1845 due to mob violence. As of 1955, Lima was the principal community of Lima Township, Illinois.
