==Name==
Kampsville was originally known as ''Beeman's Landing'', after James L. Beeman, a ferry operator on the Illinois River. After Stephen Farrow (1802–1856)〔(Stephen Farrow ) Grave of Stephen Farrow with birth and death dates〕 purchased the ferry from Beeman, the name was changed to ''Farrowtown.'' The name ''Vedder'' was used when the post office was established in 1857. The name ''Kampsville'' was made official on 6 March 1872 and refers to Michael A. Kamp (1829–1922),〔(Michael A.
