Volo was named after Volos, Greece. The city of Volos, Greece is associated with mythology, specifically, the home of Jason, leader of the Argonauts, who set sail from there to retrieve the Golden Fleece. How strange it is that I got involved with the history of Volo, Illinois. It seems to be the center point for an area that involved ancient giants, mounds builders, genocides, the Underground Railroad, mythology and paranormal occurrences. I always seemed to get pulled back after walking away from Volo as something strange comes up in my feeds or research to pull me back for another look.
