Do you know of Gray Willow ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Gray Willow. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Gray Willow.<1>

Our sources for Gray Willow (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Gray Willow other than they indicate that Gray Willow would be found somewhere in Kane County, Illinois.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1869 and closed  in 1888.
