from the book, "HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF JASTER COUNTY ILLINOIS", by
Martha Robins, pub 1938

p. 16 & 17
"... In 1867 about five sections were taken from Sainte Marie and added to
Willow Hill. In December 1870 the following notice appeared: - "A
petition for the forming a new township within the present boundaries of
Sainte Marie will be presented to the Board of Supervisors of Jasper
County, Illinois at their next first meeting after the expiration of sixty
days from this date, December 5, 1870. The new township is to be called
Union. The boundary will commence at the northwest corner of Sainte
Marie, go south on the east line of Smallwood township to the Richland
county line, east 5 1/2 miles, north to the line between Sainte Marie and
Willow Hill, then west to the east line of Wade, thence south on that line
to the southeast corner of Wade, and west to the beginning , for the
convenience of the citizens of the said township." [Next follows a 3
column list of names which include: "William Gustin, R.B. Gustin, Samuel
M. Gustin, and Charles W. Gustin"]
"On February 10, 1871 the following notice appeared:-"The Board of
Supervisors refused at their meeting to grant a division of Sainte Marie
township in accordance with the will of the petitioners." It is said the
proposition was then carried to the supreme court. The request was
granted and the township formed in 1876. But it was named Fox for the
creek that crossed it, instead of Union."
