Early Fillmore Illinois History In the autumn or 1816 a small group of white men from Kentucky, who had settled in what is now Bond County, traveled in a northerly direction on a hunting expedition. The country they discovered was heavily timbered with walnut, maple, oak, and hickory. The woods were infested with bears, wolves, and Indians. The land was abundant with game and plenty of clear spring water and creeks. history.montgomeryco.com |

Fillmore Illinois Historical Society & Museum It has been interesting to all involved to see the different memorabilia that has been donated. We have pictures of Main Street on display, some dating back to its beginning. We have pages of The Fillmore Record, a newspaper published in Fillmore in 1891. The many memories of happenings in our youth come to mind as we view pictures hanging on the walls. history.montgomeryco.com |
