Peotone is located approximately 40 miles from downtown Chicago. We are a small community proud of our history with friendly people, good schools, and home to one of the last remaining mills in the country, originally built in 1872.

The present site of the village of Peotone was bought from the railroad company and laid out by David Goodwille in 1856. Legend has it the town was named for an Indian Chief who formerly roamed the area, but some say it is named by an official of the railroad who created the names of the stations along the line by combining consonents and vowels as he traveled. The poplar translation of the name of Peotone is "A good place to live in."
