Illinois has a very interesting geological history. At one time, this area was covered by an ocean. Later it had lush tropical forests. Eventually the Ice Age glaciers leveled the ground to its current relatively flat topography. The Paleo-Indians are believed to have traveled from Asia to North America at the end of the last Ice Age about 14,000 years ago. These people gradually moved south until they occupied most of the United States. These early peoples adapted over time to the changing environment after the Ice Age. By the time the first white man explored Illinois, the Kickapoo Indians were living in Central Illinois. Both Indian Creek and Indian Grove Township got their names because of the Kickapoo village south of Fairbury. This short story reviews the history of what eventually became Fairbury, Illinois. Many local residents have discovered artifacts from these first inhabitants of the area. It is hoped this book will help people understand some of the history behind those artifacts and the people who created them.
