I am not related. I pick postings and answer them. I live in DuPage County, Illinois.

Was there a George Pratt? He sold the family farm to make up part of Pratt Wayne Woods.

George Pratt convinced the District to purchase the quarry area for a forest preserve. In 1974, Pratt expanded the preserve by selling his adjacent 250-acre Maple Spring Farm to the District.

Pratt's Wayne Woods Forest Preserve in northwestern DuPage County.
