Named after early pioneer and fur trapper Dan Beckwith, Danville was a dream realized when the first town lots were auctioned on April 10, 1827. The town grew, especially after the "iron horse" made its way into the area. The railroad opened the doors to Danville's rich manufacturing potential, and the town expanded. Serving as the Vermilion County seat, Danville has undergone many changes in the last 70 years. Although the focus of its economy has changed, the days of General Motors, Chuckles, General Electric, and many more businesses and industries that provided work and brought people to the county linger in memory. Employment provided a rich and full life upon which the heritage of Danville was built.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Vermilion County Museum SocietyPublisher: Arcadia Publishing Library EditionsPublished: 06/09/2014ISBN: 9781531669195Pages: 130Weight: 0.91lbsSize: 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d
