General Information about Kent

Kent is an unincorporated community in Stephenson County, Illinois, USA. Kent is home to the Kent Bank, Kent Feed Mill, St. Paul's Lutheran Church (ELCA), Kent United Methodist Church, Kent Fire Department and the Kent U.S. Post Office (Zip code: 61044).
Kent was surveyed and platted in 1887 at the same time the Chicago Great Western Railroad laid its tracks through Stephenson County.[1] When the village was founded it was the only village within its township and it was thought that the area had great potential for growth.[1] Kent is probably named for the Reverend Aratus Kent, an traveling evangelist from Galena, Illinois.[2] The post office in present-day Kent was established on July 29, 1850.[2]
