The one and only North Oaks, MN
In 1883, railroad magnet James J. Hill purchased 3,500 acres of land in Moundsview and White Bear Townships from Charles D. Gilfillan. Hill named his property North Oaks Farm, and in the next few years purchased adjacent farms to increase his land ownership to about 5,500 acres. Hill’s plan was to build a farm that would support his Great Northern Railway and the immigrant settlers the railroad brought to establish farms along its tracks.
