History
Thayer was laid out as a town in 1882.[4] The community was named for a first settler.[5] A post office has been in operation at Thayer since 1881.[6]
Thayer, along with Shelby, Sumava Resorts and other small Kankakee River communities, has historically had to contend with periodic flooding from the river.[7]
