History

St. Francis was named after Francis of Assisi.[4]

In 1855 Dwight Woodbury built a dam, grist and saw mill, and the first house; which was later used as a hotel. George Armsby and E. Fowler are considered to be the first settlers in the area.[5]

St. Francis Township was settled in 1855 and organized in 1857. The name St. Francis comes from Louis Hennepin, who named the Rum River after St. Francis in 1680.[6]

The first doctor to practice in St. Francis arrived in 1857 and was known as Dr. Marshall. In the same year, school was started at the home of M. Fowler, and Hattie Waterhouse became the first teacher.[5]

In 1879, a general store was started by Pelutiar McClure. In 1888, a large mill was built and owned by Dwight Woodbury and called St. Francis Milling Co. A starch and canning factory was built in 1893. In the early 1890s, Blanchette’s Sample Room Beer Parlour was opened, and was turned into an ice cream parlor when the school was consolidated. The ice cream parlor was run until the owner died in 1933. On July 18, 1933 the mill burnt down and the dam was destroyed. By this time, there was also a blacksmith shop, drug store, and a meat market which was later turned into a livery stable.[5]

Pioneer Days started in 1964.[5]

St. Francis was incorporated on May 16, 1962 and became a statutory city in 1974 when villages were removed as a subdivision in Minnesota.[7]
