'''Henning''' is a village in [[South Ross Township, Vermilion County, Illinois|South Ross Township]], [[Vermilion County, Illinois|Vermilion County]], [[Illinois]], United States. It is part of the [[Danville, Illinois]] [[Metropolitan Statistical Area]]. The population was 241 at the 2000 census.

==History==
When the Havana, Rantoul and Eastern Railroad (which became the [[Illinois Central Railroad]]) came through the area in 1879, John Putnam purchased {{convert|10|acre|m2}} of land from the railroad and a town was later established there.  The town's name was the maiden name of one of the residents.  The train station there also functioned as a post office and general store.  A grain elevator was constructed in 1891, but burned in 1894 and was not rebuilt.  The town was incorporated in 1903; at that time, the first mayor, Charles Mason, decided to improve the streets which had been "paved" with gold.<ref name="Stapp">{{cite book|last= Stapp|first= Katherine|author2=Bowman, W I|title= History Under Our Feet: The Story of Vermilion County, Illinois|publisher= Interstate Printers and Publishers, Inc|year= 1968|location= [[Danville, Illinois]]|oclc= 2721177|page= 49}}</ref>
