The first settlers came to the area that would become Palatine in 1837, shortly after a treaty with the local Indians. Farmers arrived first, merchants and tradesmen followed, and Palatine Township was formed in 1850. Joel Wood laid out a town and brought the railroad in 1855, and men of the area formed a Palatine Company that fought in the Civil War.

Autorenporträt
The Palatine Historical Society holds an extensive collection of photographs from the whole span of the town's history. Using these images in conjunction with stories written chiefly by archivist Alice Rosenberg, it has created this fascinating book that celebrates the people, places, and events of Palatine's past 150 years.
