Comment | The original "Town of Jefferson" included much of what is now the northwest side of Chicago. The State formed Jefferson Township in 1850 and by 1855, the village had 50 buildings. The Town of Jefferson was officially incorporated in 1872. During the 1860's, the population of the Town of Jefferson grew to about 800 persons. Edit with form to add a comment |
