Town History

This Victorian handyman special is located in De Land, a small village located in Piatt County. It was named after its founder, O.L. DeLand.

The history of De Land dates back to the late 19th century when O.L. DeLand, a prominent businessman and philanthropist, purchased the land in the area. He envisioned the development of a community that would attract settlers and contribute to the growth of the region. In 1871, DeLand established a post office in the area, and the village began to take shape.

The name “De Land” was chosen to honor the village’s founder, O.L. DeLand. His contributions and efforts in developing the area were recognized by naming the village after him. The name also served as a way to distinguish the village from other towns and settlements in Illinois.

Over the years, De Land grew as an agricultural community, with farming being a significant economic activity in the region. The village provided a range of services and amenities, including schools, churches, and businesses, to support the needs of its residents.

Today, De Land retains its small-town charm and is home to a close-knit community. It is surrounded by picturesque farmland and offers a peaceful rural setting. While the village has experienced some changes and modernization, it has managed to preserve its historical character.
