Here’s a little tidbit of Sandwich history thanks a podcast listener. You may, or may not, know that Sandwich was established around a planned railroad stop built on land given to the railroad by Almon Cage. Mr. Cage originally named the city Almon, but then decided to change the name to Newark Station.
The railroad had only a flag stop at first, but when “Long John” Wentworth, a Congressman and future mayor of Chicago, got involved, then the railroad established a full stop in the town. At the time the name of the town was Newark Station and it became confused with it’s nearby southern neighbor, the town of Newark. Since Representative Wentworth had played a large role in convincing the railroad to have a full stop in the town, he was given the honor of naming the town. The Congressman selected the name Sandwich after the town of Sandwich New Hampshire in which he was raised.
Interestingly, an ancestor of Wentworth, Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth, established the town of Sandwich New Hampshire in 1763 naming it in honor of John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, said to be the inventor of the sandwich.
One of “Long John” Wentworth’s greatest, and often overlooked, accomplishments when he was a congressman, was to push for the border between Wisconsin and Illinois as it currently exists. There was a big push to have the Wisconsin border established at the southern tip of Lake Michigan, bringing the border to the southern edge of DeKalb county. This would have meant that Illinois would have no access to the lake, and Sandwich would lie in two states.
If you have some little-known history about Sandwich, send it to me at [email protected]. I’ll read it on a future podcast and give you full bragging rights.
