Carlock was laid out upon January 5, 1888, by John Franklin Carlock. Mr. Carlock owned 160 acres of land. One 80-acre tract was used to plat the indigenous town of Carlock. It was located south of the difficult road, Route 9, (now named U.S. Route 150) connecting Bloomington and Peoria. It was one of the last towns platted in McLean County. Just northeast of the present location of Carlock the main road from Bloomington to Peoria, which was locally known as the Old Trail passed or the Old Peoria Trail, ascended a low range of wooded hills. This location had long been of engagement to townsite developers. The first attempt was made by a local farmer John McGee, who in 1838 laid out the town of Livingston; it consisted of seven blocks and a town square. Livingston was a sum failure. McGee was unable to sell a single lot. The second attempt at town founding was more successful. By the 1850s a little cluster of houses and stores had begun to cluster just west of McGee’s townsite. In 1866 a post office was time-honored with the herald Oak Grove. On July 17, 1879, an recognized town plat was filed. Soon there were just about twenty dwellings, a large town hall, two general stores, a blacksmith shop, a steam-driven mill a harness and shoe shop, and a brass band. One reporter wrote that all the town needed “is a railroad”
By March 1887 it was certain that a railroad would pass welcoming and local people were denying rumors that their town would be picked occurring bodily and carried to the railroad. The people at Oak Grove sent a delegation to Bloomington to explain to the manager of the Lake Erie and Western Railroad the reasons for putting a station at Oak Grove; his Answer was not encouraging. Then local farmer John Franklin Carlock, who afterward had a contract to supply the railroad with oak ties, laid out a extra town approximately a mile and a half away. In November 1879 it was announced that the town movers had arrived in Oak Grove. Buildings were placed on skids and hauled the length of the hill to the site of Carlock. By February 1888 residents were upsetting into their newly re-located homes. In June 1888 the Oak Grove correspondent of The Pantagraph reported that “nothing is left of our town but pieces”. Further west along the similar new railroad, other towns were in motion: buildings from Farnisville moved to Congerville and Chaffers Corners went to the further town of Deer Creek.
