From Pioneer Plots to Modern Village: Tracing the Evolution of Leonard

Discover North Dakota’s Absolute Wealthiest Small Town

Tracing Our Roots: The Founding and Growth of Kindred, North Dakota
Kindred, North Dakota, was established with the help of the railroad. The Northern Pacific Railroad owned a land grant from Congress in 1864, which was meant to aid in the construction of a railroad and telegraph line. J. S. Huntington and William A. Kindred bought this land in 1880 for $2800. Later, the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railroad purchased a strip of land for a right-of-way. The original Kindred plat was filed in December in Cass County, Dakota Territory.
