Troy, Illinois, was named after Troy, New York, by early settlers who hailed from that area. The name reflects the common practice of naming new locations after familiar places in the hopes of attracting settlers and fostering a sense of community. Established in the mid-19th century, Troy grew as a result of its strategic location along transportation routes.
