History
The city of Carol Stream was named after the daughter of its founder, Jay Stream. While becoming frustrated from the red tape of negotiating a planned 350-400 home subdivision in Naperville, Illinois, he decided to “build his own town” after a Naperville clerk reportedly told him to do so. In 1957, he began purchasing unincorporated farmland outside Wheaton. In August 26, 1957, his daughter Carol was severely injured in a car accident and fell into a coma. On advice of the doctors that her recovery could improve with some good news, Jay decided to name the town in her honor. After 4 months in a coma, Carol regained consciousness. Upon learning a town had been named in her honor, she thought it was “odd and silly” at first during an interview in 1991 with a Chicago Tribune reporter. Carol passed in January 2020 and enjoyed following the development of the community via newspaper clippings and messages sent by village staff. She is quoted to have said, “I can only say that this town is so lovely because of a lot of hard-working people who have a good sense of pride and respect for their community.”
