What’s In A Name?

In 1835, settlers were arriving in the Hanover area to begin farms. Most of the settlers came from New England or New York State, but one group came from Indiana – commonly known as Hoosiers. The farm land of the Indiana settlers became known as Hoosier Grove, which was the predecessor to Streamwood. The land of Hoosier Grove Park was purchased and named to preserve agricultural history.
