CHANGE COUNTY SEAT In May. 1837. the county seat was located in McHenry, having been selected by commissioners appointed by the legislature. In the next two years the county was divided into parts, the new county being called Lake. It was thought that McHenry would continue to be the local county seat, but the people became dissatisfied since it was so much to one side, so during the session cf 1842-43, legislation was passed authorizing the selection of a new county seat. In 1844, as a result of this election, the west of justice was moved to Woodstock. Advertising seems to raise the level of wishing, as well as living.
