Warsaw, Illinois

Warsaw is a city in Hancock County, Illinois, United States. The population was 1,607 at the 2010 census, a decline from 1,793 in 2000. The city is notable for its historic downtown and the Warsaw Brewery, which operated for more than 100 years beginning in 1861 and, after renovation, reopened as a bar, restaurant and microbrewery in 2006.
==History==
The city of Warsaw began in 1814, when young Major Zachary Taylor founded Fort Johnson on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River across from the mouth of the Des Moines River. Fort Johnson was occupied only for a few weeks before it was burned. In 1815 another military camp, Fort Edwards, was built nearby at a different location.〔("Fort Edwards" ), North American Forts, accessed 28 Dec 2010〕 Warsaw became an important fur trading post and one of the earliest European-American settlements in western Illinois.
During the 1840s, Warsaw was a center of opposition to Mormon settlement in Nauvoo and other areas in Hancock County during the conflict sometimes known as "The Mormon Illinois War". The local newspaper at the time, the ''Warsaw Signal'' edited by Thomas C. Sharp, was a vocal opponent of Mormon settlement and practices in Western Illinois.〔Leonard, Glen M., ''Nauvoo: A Place of Peace, A People of Promise'' (Salt Lake City and Provo: Deseret Book and Brigham Young University Press, 2002), p. 107〕 The Mormons, led by Willard Richards, also attempted to establish a settlement at a site just south of Warsaw during this period, but abandoned these plans due to local opposition and other problems.〔Leonard. ''Nauvoo''. p. 186〕
The city is notable for its well-preserved downtown with a number of remaining historic businesses. Founded by German immigrants, the Warsaw Brewery opened in 1861 and operated for more than 100 years, ending production in 1971. The facility was renovated and reopened in 2006 as a bar and restaurant.〔(Warsaw Brewery ), accessed 2/16/08〕
