A lovely example of this type but the grade seems optimistic, although it's a high quality note. There are 17 small notes reported. Officer signatures of S.O. Quammen, President and Alfred W. Johnson, Cashier. Lidgerwood, Richland County, is in the Wahpeton metro area in the southeast corner of North Dakota. The population was 652 at the 2010 census. This town was founded in 1886 as the Great Northern Railroad and Soo Line Railroad built westward with nearly parallel lines. It was named for George I. Lidgerwood, the right-of-way agent for the Soo Line Railroad who platted the site. The post office was established March 2, 1887 with Jacob A. Rickert as Postmaster. The village incorporated in 1895, and became a city in 1900 with J. D. Mulloy mayor and a peak population of 1,147 was reached in 1950. Historical author Z'Dena Trinka (1893-1967) was born near here, and sculptor Ida Bisek Prokop Lee began her career in this city.
