Mundelein is a village in Lake County, Illinois, United States and a northern suburb of Chicago. Per the 2020 census, the population was 31,560, making the village the fourth largest town in Lake County. The village straddles Libertyville Township and Fremont Township, and borders nearby Grayslake, Ivanhoe, Diamond Lake, and Libertyville. The village is located 33 miles northwest of the Chicago Loop.

First settled by European settlers in 1835, the village first incorporated in 1909 after a spur line connected the village to the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad. After the opening of University of Saint Mary of the Lake in the village in 1921, the village would host the closing events of the 28th International Eucharistic Congress in June 1926, bringing hundreds of thousands of people to the town. Four name changes happened throughout the village's history, including two after incorporation.

History[edit]

Pre-incorporation[edit]

Native Americans of the area, such as the Potawatomi people were recorded traded with French trappers as early as 1650. The Potwatomie had settled on a camp on the south end of Diamond Lake.[2] The region that now encompasses Libertyville and Mundelein was previously known as Fort Hill Settlement.[3] Natives lost possession of land in the area in 1836 and were forced west of the Mississippi River. Peter Shaddle was the first European settler in the area in 1835 and built a log cabin in the area, which is now owned by University of Saint Mary of the Lake. He would soon sell his claim the following years to settlers from New York.[2]

Shaddle would later be followed by settlers coming from England who named the town "Mechanics Grove", due to the settler's occupations of millwrights, wheelwrights and carpenters. The town's first school would open in 1837 and a church the following year.[2]

The town would change its name to "Holcomb" in the early 1850s for a settler named John Holcomb. He migrated from New York in 1847 and was described as a "civic and spiritual" leader for his participation in the Methodist Episcopal Church and for his service in township offices.[2] He would later donate 20 acres of land to the Wisconsin Central Railroad in 1885. The town would change its name to Rockefeller in the late 1880s after either business magnate John D. Rockefeller[3] or his brother William Rockefeller Jr.[4] in order to benefit the economy. The first post office would be established two years later in 1887.[5] Rockefeller would incorporate on February 1, 1909[6] through a referendum in anticipation of an economic boom after the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad built a spur line in 1904. Residents from nearby Diamond Lake, Illinois were included in the vote in order to meet the minimum resident requirements at the time, although would soon withdraw from the village.[4]

Post-incorporation[edit]

1909 to 1925[edit]

In July 1909, Rockefeller was renamed to "Area" after a request by a local educational entrepreneur named Arthur Sheldon, who had purchased 600 acres (2.4 km2) of land. His property was on the east side of the town, which was then called Mud Lake.[4] Sheldon bought this land to open a business school called Sheldon School, which had previously opened in Chicago in 1902. The school taught sales techniques, including the philosophy of "AREA", which stood for "Ability, Reliability, Endurance, and Action." Classes first began at the school in 1910, including students from Nicaragua, Australia, Mexico, and Germany. At one time, it boasted 10,000 students, many of them women, which was unusual for the time.[7][8][5] Sheldon's business failed, with the Electronic Encyclopedia of Chicago suggesting that the failure was a result of World War I.[4] Sheldon would end up selling his Mundelein estate, which would later be purchased by the Archbishop of Chicago George Mundelein to open University of Saint Mary of the Lake in 1921.[9]

On December 10, 1924, the Village Board held a special meeting with representatives from the Soo Line Railroad, who requested that the board change the village's name to Mundelein (for the cardinal). The board voted to make the change and asked the Illinois Secretary of State to make the name change. They received permission in April 1925, and the Village Board passed an ordinance changing the village's name to Mundelein. Cardinal Mundelein donated the village its first new fire truck, a 1925 Stoughton. The fire truck was officially turned over to the village at a ceremony held at the St. Mary of the Lake Seminary on July 17, 1925. The fire truck, nicknamed "Old No. 1", would later be restored in 2008.[10]

28th International Eucharistic Congress on June 24, 1926

28th International Eucharistic Congress[edit]

The closing events for the 28th International Eucharistic Congress were held in the University of Saint Mary of the Lake on June 24, 1926. Approximately half a million people were brought to the campus, including 10,000 nuns, 8,000 priests, 390 bishops, 64 archbishops, and 12 cardinals. Trains were used to commute people to the village every 30 minutes before mass.[11] A temporary terminal was built to accommodate the events at current site of Carmel High School, and existed until the Great Depression.[10] 18,000 cars went through Mundelein on that day, and thousands of National Guard troops were sent to control traffic after the event. In total, 820 trains went through the Mundelein station from dawn to midnight on that day.[12]

Two events were scheduled for the Seminary, a Solemn Pontifical Mass at 10:00 am, and a Procession at 2:00 pm. During the procession, a violent thunderstorm passed the seminary, leaving people at the procession "tired and soaked to the skin". The seminary was left with litter and damaged lawns after the event.[10]

1929 to present[edit]

The original Village Hall, which was built and dedicated in 1929, costing the Village $36,000 to construct the building.[11] The building, which was described as "Tudor-style",[13] was obsolete after the completion of a new village hall in 2014, before being demolished in 2019 for commercial development.[14]

Two floods in 1936 and 1937 severely damaged the village. The first flood occurred on September 27, 1936, after 1.33 inches of rain fell onto the village, damaging businesses. The second occurred in June 1937, flooding the village's main road Lake Street, causing further damage to adjacent neighborhoods and businesses.[11]

Fremont Public Library, a library in the town, was established on Park Street and Lake Street in the village in 1955,[15] before later being moved to a larger site on Midlothian Road in 2001.[16] The old site, which was previously used as a barbershop, was sold to Mundelein Elementary School District 75 where it has been used as an administration building. The property was considered for a sale in 2018.[17]

By the 1970s, the community was largely residential with a little light industrial development.[18] A major employer of the village, Ball Glass, closed in the early 1980s. The village saw economic and industrial growth during the 1990s, gaining over 10,000 residents between the 1980 and 1990 United States census.[19]

Mundelein greatly expanded the area of the village with a 2022 annexation of over 700 acres of land that was owned by the Wirtz family, the owner of the Chicago Blackhawks. The land was previously northwest of the town. During the annexation, 1,200 houses and 600 townhomes were planned to be developed.[20]
