Kildeer

History

This area was largely rural and made up of farms and undeveloped lands until after World War II. Increased population and pent-up demand for housing resulted in new suburban development outside many major cities, aided by federal investment in highways that eased commuting to work. Research has even failed to discover why the village's named is mis-spelled. It's source may have been the many killdeer (notice the correct spelling) birds that inhabited the area. It wasn't possible to walk down a road without killdeers scurrying on the ground in front of you.
