William Weishaar, Park Forest, Illinois in 1952: In the 1950's when the developers came out from Chicago to build Park Forest, William "Bill" Weishaar, grandson of Michael Weishaar who homesteaded the land, was told his farm had been 'rezoned'. He could stay, but would now have to pay taxes on each lot as if it was developed with houses on it. Forced to sell, he decided to try his hand farming in Southern California. But his wife Tillie missed her friends, so they returned to build a home in Steger on W 34th Street.

St Ann's Church, Illinois
St Ann's newspaper clipping from the Chicago Heights (Illinois) Star: St. Ann, located West of Rich Township High on Sauk Trail in Park Forest on the site of the St Annes cemetery. The cemetery was the burial site for early pioneers before it was consecrated by a Catholic bishop in 1852, and was an indian burial grounds before that. The migratory Sauk indians had an encampment south of Sauk trail, and many arrowheads were found by the Weishaars during the spring plowing. Homeowners in this area should be on the lookout; they still occasionally turn up.

Weishaar farm, Illinois
Weishaar farm Park Forest, Illinois: Artifacts belonging to John Michael Weishaar and one church door key from St. Anns prairie chapel on Sauk Trail just west of the Weishaar farm homestead. This key was in the possession of the Weishaars as they were custodians of the prairle church when the traveling priest was not there. St. Anns is the church around which, legends tell us, the devildogs howled in frustration, not being able to take the soul of a man who had fallen away from the church but was cleverly buried on ground where the bishop had accidentally dropped a few drops of holy water.
