A Historic Nickname!

Rockford, Illinois got its nickname "Reaper City" back in the 19th century. In short, the story goes a little something like this: John H. Manny put Rockford on the map and kick-started our industrial revolution with his invention, the Manny Reaper. 🚜 This led to a major legal battle over patent rights, and guess who showed up in Rockford to work the case? None other than Abraham Lincoln! 🤩 This was possibly the only time Honest Abe ever visited our city. This case is also how he met his future Secretary of War, Edwin Stanton.Fun fact: Stanton wasn't very nice to Lincoln at first, but Lincoln was never one to hold a grudge. 😉So, let’s celebrate our rich history and the innovations that shaped our community—and maybe even helped win the Civil War! 🌟 You can see the Manny Reaper featured in this video at Midway Village Museum and learn more of the story from their incredible staff!
