Antioch il Wedding
Antioch is a suburban village in Lake County, Illinois, USA. The population was 8,788 at the 2000 census. Antioch is part of Chicagoland, the metropolitan area surrounding Chicago, Illinois. As noted in the Village of Antioch's website (http://www.antioch.il.gov/history.html):
The Pottawatomi Indian Tribe, nomadic hunters who lived in tepees, inhabited Antioch when white men began to arrive. They fought with the British in the War of 1812 and then with the American settlers in the Blackhawk War of 1832. It was in 1832 that the Indians began to leave the area, although arrowheads and other remnants of their history can still be found today if one knows where to look. The winding Highway 173 was once an Indian trail and Highway 83 was the Muquonago Trail. Sequoit, name of the creek and the local high school mascot, is an Indian word meaning "winding".
