There are 2 monuments, located on the former farm of William Davis, now a county park called Shabonna Park. It's located just north of the village of Harding. One monument honors Shabonna, the Indian who warned the settlers. The second monument was erected by William Munson, who married Rachel Hall. It commemorates those killed by the Indian raid. What is purported to be the old millstone sets nearby. These monuments are a stone's throw from Indian Creek. My ancestor was Temperance Hall, oldest child of William and Mary Jane Rebecca (Williams) Hall. Temperance was already married and not living with the Hall's at the time of the massacre. Here's some more... From the "History of LaSalle County," published 1877 regarding a brief history of Freedom Township, where the William Hall farmstead is located. pp. 394-397 "The town of Freedom embraces the surveyed Township 35 N., of R. 3 East, and is mostly prairie. Indian creek passes, in a southeast direction, across the northeast corner of the town. On the banks of the creek are about two and one-half sections of timber, which was originally of excellent quality, and was the attraction that induced the settlement. The settlement commenced in 1830, and was broken up by the Indians, in the Black Hawk war of 1832. After the war, the surviving settlers returned, and others came in, and, as a part of Indian Precinct, and later, as the town of Freedom, it has been a prominent and prosperous section of the county. The sad story of the massacre of three families of its pioneers, gives a melancholy interest to its history, and to the locality where it occurred. Each succeeding generation, with bated breath, will listen to the recital, till the banks of Indian creek will become historic ground through all the future. "William Munson has recently erected a fine marble monument at the grave, where the fifteen victims were buried. It is in view of the public road, leading from Freedom to Earl, on the northeast side of the creek, and as the white column meets the view, the traveler will instinctively heave a sigh of sympathy for the tragic fate of the first pioneers. "William Hall, born in Georgia, was married to Mary J. R. Wilburs, [s/b Williams] in Kentucky; moved to Illinois; from there to near Springfield, Illinois, in 1825; made a farm at Mackinaw, and then went to the lead mines, near Galena; followed mining three years, then moved to Bureau Creek, and to near Lamoille, Bureau County. In the spring of 1832, sold his claim to Aaron Gunn, and moved to Indian Creek, where he, with his wife, and one child, were killed by Indians, May 20, 1832. His oldest daughter, Temperance, married Peter Cartwright, nephew of Dr. Cartwright. For the others, see narrative of the massacre. "Mr. Davis, from Kentucky; settled on Indian creek, S. W. 1/4 S. 2, in 1830-the first in that region. His wife was daughter of John Hays, the first settler at Peru-they, with five children, were killed at the massacre. Their three oldest sons escaped. "William Petigrew, from Kentucky, wife and two children, were stopping with Davis at the time of the massacre, and all were killed. Mr. Petigrew came to Bailey's Grove at an early day, and was then single; he is said to have married a widow, with two children, and these constituted his family when he went to Holderman' s Grove, and from thereto Indian Creek, in 1832, where he proposed to settle. "John H. Henderson, and wife, Elizabeth Powell, came from Tennessee in 1830, he located on Section 11. He was in the field on the south side of Indian creek, planting corn, when the massacre took place by the Sauk Indians, May 20, 1832; he, with others, escaped to Ottawa. He was an active, enterprising citizen, and a leading abolitionist. He died June 17, 1848, much regretted. His widow still survives, living with her children. Her children are: Mary, married A. P. Devereaux, of Freedom; George, in Iowa; Frances, married Richard Scott, in California; Martha, married James Clark, of Sycamore; Sarah, married George Martin; Erastus T., married Miss Norton; Annetta, married Charles Martin, of Vermont. "William Munson came from Indiana to Putnam County, and from there here in 1833; he purchased the farm, owned by William Hall at the time he was killed by the Indians, on Section 1. He married Rachel Hall, who was taken away prisoner by the Sauk Indians, May 20, 1832. In 1837 he laid out the town of Munson, which has hardly realized the expectations of its founder. His wife died May 1, 1870. Mr. Munson still occupies the farm where he has spent the most of his life. He has four daughters and three sons : Irena, married Dr. Geo. Vance: Miranda, married Samuel Dunnavan, of Adams; Fidelia, married George Shaver, of Rutland; Phebe, married John Reed, of Ottawa; William, married Delia Shaver; Lewis and Elliott, at home.
