About Posen, Illinois

From the Cook County Hazard Mitigation Plan: "The area that is now Posen was settled by farmers, mainly of Dutch and German origin, in the second half of the 19th century. In 1893 a Chicago-based real estate firm hired 75 agents in the Polish-speaking areas of Germany to sell land to Poles seeking to immigrate to the United States."
