Many settlers were of German or Dutch descent in search of farmland. Canal access also attracted many settlers to this particular area.[4] A post office was established as Whitehouse in 1856.[5] Whitehouse was platted in 1864.[6] The village was named for Edward Whitehouse, a railroad official and treasurer of the Wabash Railroad.[7]
