LaGrange IL 60525
History Snapshot
In it's
beginning, as was most of the land in the general area, there were many farms
and people generally lived in cabins. F.D. Cossitt, a cotton planter from
LaGrange Tennessee founded the community, which was incorporated in 1879.
He named it after his beloved hometown.
Again,
as in many towns along the Burlington corridor, a push was on by the residents
to extend the train services "far out west", like toward Aurora.
After much resistance, it finally happened. Of course the train today is a
major attraction for home purchasers in the area. LaGrange is located
about 14 miles from the bustling city of Chicago.
The
Village's historic district is listed in the National Register of Historic
Places. There are still many grand-style homes such as Victorians,
Queen Anne, and Prairie styles in the community. Homes are generally well
kept and lovingly restored. Other attractions of LaGrange are the
excellent schools systems. The annual pet parade draws a ton of visitors
every year from all over the country.
