Bureau County is located in the north-central region of the great state of Illinois. It was established on February 28, 1837, from a portion of Putnam County. The county was named in honor of Pierre de Buero, a Frenchman who established a trading post and fortified settlement known as Fort St. Louis on the Illinois River in the 1680s.
The county seat is Princeton, which was originally established as a cluster of log cabins in 1831. Settlers were attracted to the fertile land and abundance of timber, which they used for building homes and as a fuel source. The county quickly became a hub for agriculture, commerce, and transportation due to its prime location on the Illinois River.
In the 1850s, the railroad arrived, further contributing to Bureau County's growth and development. Like many other settlements in the Midwest, the county saw an influx of immigrants from various countries, particularly from Sweden, Ireland, and Germany.
A fun fact about Bureau County is that it is home to the Red Covered Bridge, which was built in 1863 and is one of only five remaining covered bridges in Illinois. The bridge is still in use today and has been featured on the Illinois Bureau of Tourism's list of "Seven Wonders of Illinois." This historic landmark is a testament to Bureau County's rich history and architectural significance.
