History

Within two years, Freeport had two newspapers and in 1853, the two were joined by a third which published in German. Another renowned statue, "Lincoln the Debator." by Leonard Crunelle, is a focal point in the city's Taylor Park. On August 27, 1858, the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858 debate between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. The nickname is a reminder of Freeport's ethnic heritage; in the late 1850s, many German-American both from Pennsylvania and from their European homeland, resettled in Stephenson County. This enabled Abraham Lincoln to win the Presidency in 1860.
