Antis, John, M. D. (deceased), one of the pioneer physicians of Grundy County, 
was born in Montgomery County, N. Y., March 17, 1817, and came to Morris in 
1845, continuing in practice for many years. He also became interested in farm 
lands in Mazon Township, and after the close of the Civil War moved upon his 
farm. He was one of the courageous men who traveled across the plains to 
California in 1849, and for two years mined for gold at Trinity. Politically 
he was a Democrat. While residing at Morris, he served the city upon two 
occasions as Mayor, and was a man of great probity and uprightness. Dr. Antis 
married Nancy A. Sweet, and they had two children: Eudora A. and Mary.
