Incorrect reference

edit

I believe the reference in the history section to Clinton County is in error. The communities mentioned were never in Clinton County. It is much further south in Illinois. The City of Clinton and other stops on the rail line were in Dewitt County at the time. This information can b verified at the sites below.
