East Dundee Wedding
East Dundee is a village in Kane County and a small section in Cook County, Illinois. The population was 2,955 at the 2000 census. Near the end of the Black Hawk War the Potowattomie Indians, a branch of the Algonquin's sold what is now Dundee to Illinois in 1835 and by 1840 almost all of this land had been settled. The first settlers actually arrived in the area in the fall of 1834, seeing the wigwams and campfires along the river. Jesse Newman, his wife and Joseph Russell who were prospectors, built a cabin along the east bank of the river a little more than a mile south of what later became the town of Dundee. The Newmans and Russell stayed only a short time, but staked their claim and returned a year later.
