We have a Flaxton St. in Culver City, CA. I wonder if it was named for Flaxton, ND or for someone from Flaxton.

I’ve spent years in Flaxton during “60’s” & “70’s” for Christmas or Thank Giving. I putting old pictures on Facebook and can’t remember how to spell R Hansen married to Edith Hansen ( Carlson ). Usually at though Viola Nelson (Carlson). The picture is at the old gas station facing south. 18.7 and 19.7 gallon. The sign was square and wrote exactly like this; 18.7 WAR 19.7 Do not post this message public.
I just tried to look at the ordinances and they are not available ? What time is the reorganizational meeting for the council on the 26th of June?
I have come to visit Flaxton to see my daughter and her family, Christina and Jonah Stout & boys. I love the beautiful sky. I look forward to many more visits and meeting the people of Flaxton. My daughter has told me how sweet everyone in town is that they have met. She recently told me in the summer one of the neighbors brought her a box of vegetables that were given to her from one of the neighbors. It makes my heart sing knowing that their are such lovely people in Flaxton.
My parents, Yvonne (Halverson) Hansen and Harry Hansen were raised and lived in Flaxton from 1914 - 1942. Happy to see the website!
Greetings: I had the opportunity to visit Tuffys new bar on Monday and what a nice place. It rivals any bar that I have ever viewed in NW ND. I wish them success as it gives people in the area a nice place to meet and socialize. I also suggested that they find a way to work with the city to get the city rv park back in operation which would help them and the community. I have been made aware of the fact that we are getting a good response on the reunion. I think everyone will have a good at the fair as the fair board is working hard at making it a memorable event. I wish you all the best and I hope to see you at the reunion. Steven Pedersen
I enjoyed the site, good to read the town is growing again. I grew up on a farm west of town and graduated there in 1975.
Still time to have your name on a name tag on our School Monument. A $100.00 donation to the Flaxton Community Club will get your name on a tag. All excess funds go towards upkeep to the Memorial Hall.
My dad was John Paulson, one time city cop of Flaxton.I just turned 50 this week, and was reminded of the great childhood ,I had in ND. I wish my 2 kids , could know the safe and wonder full times I had as a kid. GOD BLESS, AND GO RAIDERS
My dad was talking this evening about Flaxton. His name is Larry Ramsbacker and he was born there in 1925 to Wesley and Vivian (Berg) Ramsbacker. They left there in 1931 due to his mothers illness. He enjoyed seeing the pictures on your website.
My cousins brought me to lovely Flaxton (July 21, 2013)to visit with 3rd cousins, Connie and Marsha. We toured the restoration-in-progress of your depot and the nearby cemetery. Very neat place & people!
Hi Flaxton, Happy New Year Everyone!
My relatives John and Hulda Noren lived in Flaxton in 1930-50. Noren was a farmer with 3 children, Chester, Alma and Hilding. I like wery much to get in contact with any of their children
Hello Flaxton! My family lived here when I was younger, and I thought I would let my husband take a look. Hope all is well!
Santa Claus is coming to town. We will have Santa night on December 1 starting with a potluck dinner at 6 pm sharp. Then Santa has promised to appear and says he is coming in on a horse drawn sleigh. That sleigh will be available for all to enjoy a brisk ride in the countryside. Come with your Christmas spirit and enjoy the beginning of the Yuletide fun. Merry Christmas
Flaxton is once again growing (over 100 people)and it looks like it might once again have a promising future. Changes are taking place with the demolition of the school and other buildings to follow. It is sad to see some of these things happening but at the same time it bodes well for the future of Flaxton. I personally would like to see the mall once again occupied. A community if it is to grow needs services even if it starts with a place to get a soda or a cup of coffee. I also believe with the many new people in the area, that you must look to find ways to make Flaxton a showplace for hospitality. Relating to that hospitality it can also be nurtured by helping the Burke County Fair become an event that people want to attend. The fairgrounds could become an activity center and a draw to the region like it once was with car races and horse races all through the summer. Lets promote "Meet me at Burke County Fair in 2013" If you would want to help with the fair and its success contact county agent Dan Folske in Bowbells at the court house. Lets also promote Flaxton as the place to live and raise your family where everyone knows their neighbor and is willing to look out for them. Have a Great Day! Steven Pedersen
I loved being in that town for 2 1/2 weeks i miss all the people that where at flaxton when i was there i miss being there it was the funnest time i had
As we crossed the USA heading to Alaska, we were enjoying small town campgrounds along the way. We pulled in off the highway at Flaxton. We were intrigued with the history and what is currently happening to revitalize the area. Thank you, we were welcomed by others in the campground. If we pass through your area again, we will surely stop to see the progress!
Hi! I was looking on google earth and saw your little town....I just wanted to say Hi! I wish I lived in a little town like Flaxton!! Best Wishes!!
I was checking for campgrounds to stay at on our way to Montana in July. I love small town camping. Hope to see the town in July.
My great grandfather is John Sheldon Gee born 7-03-1859. He is mentioned on this site in the history section and you can see that info if you click on history/stories at the top of the page of the history section. He and his wife Mary Ellen (Marron) Gee lived in Flaxton. They had nine children: Maude, Viola, Vernon, Roland, Etta, Harold, Vera, Lyle, and an infant who died at just over one month of age in 1905. Lyle Melvin Gee is my grandfather b. 11-21-1900 in Flaxton, d. 4-16-1985 in Spokane, WA. Bill Gee (previous post) is my brother. Thanks for having this site!
Just making a correction to my previous log. My grandfather, Lyle M. Gee was born in Flaxton November 21,1900.
My great-grandfather, John Gee, was one of the original settlers in Flaxton (circa 1899-1900). My grandfather, Lyle M. Gee, was born there in January of 1900. He always claimed that he was the first child born in Flaxton. This was an interesting site to look through. Thank-you for maintaining it.
Currently I am the secretary of the Souris Valley Danish Society. I am doing a little story on Etlar and Elaine Jacobsen for the SHA Newsletter. Sincerely, Pam

I have always loved Flaxton, some of my best memories are of coming to spend summers with my Dad (Dwain Larsen), my grandparents, and most of all my Uncle Merwyn.

Hello, on the way north up to Alberta after a wonderful trip through your great country, curiousity caused us to divert into Flaxton. What a lovely little town! I was overwhelmed with a desire to know the history of Flaxton and am grateful for what you have posted here on the website. The historical buildings are something else. Hope you have a good summer and all goes fine with the oil well. A good restaurant with highway signage would become a real draw for travelers!
My late mother June D. Hostbjor Lived with her family in Flaxton at a farm nearby until the farm was sold I believe sometime around 1950.Smart man my grandfather Oly,who retained the mineral rights which we still own today. My younger brother Lee and I were planning a trip to Flaxton this year however due to his sudden passing in april, the trip will have to be recheduled. Nice site, I remember watching the trains go by from the poch roof of the pool hall.
I was known as Sis Peterson when I was growing up in Flaxton. I just realized that I never changed my e nmail dadress. Lucille
Small world! On a trip to Yankee Stadium in New York City in July I met a young man who works in the oil business in the Flaxton area. As we walked thru JFK airport, we wondered if anyone else was discussing Flaxton in New York City that night! I learned to play and love baseball in Flaxon in the 50s. Mickey Mantle was my hero, and I finally got to see where he played!
I am Chuck & Betty Keenan's oldest son and we lived there for about 10 years in the '50s. Good memories. Just wanted to let you know I appreciate the time it took to set up this site and thank who ever is responsible for their efforts. Altho I am so far removed from Flaxton I know no one there, it was great to see the history and be reminded of my childhood. I think my parents know some of the people in the guest book section.
I am Chuck and Betty's son-in-law and am signing this for them as they no longer have e-mail and internet. Chuck and Betty owned and operated the Flaxton Hotel from about 1950 to 1960 and Chuck was a music and math teacher in Flaxton as well. Please send any greetings to them via this e-mail. Thank you Steve ( Barb Keenan's husband) Avery.

Hello Flaxton!! Just wanted to stop by and say hello to all the residents of the Flaxton area. My wife Nadine and I have only been living in Nashville for 2 months (I'm pursuing a career as a guitarist), and we're already talking about possibly making our permanent home in or around Flaxton in the near future. I've lived in other states over the past few years, and I've got to tell you that the character of Flaxton, it's wonderful people, and just North Dakota in general, is un-matched. I couldn't have asked for a better place to be brought up, and it's the only place I'll ever call "home". God bless you all, and take care!
It has been several years since I've been to Flaxton. I moved to the big city of Bowbells when I was 10. As I read through the guestbook, I recognized several names and people that I do know. I may make it back to Bowbells for their reunion this July. Maybe I'll see some of you there.
I love northwest North Dakota. I will be coming to Flaxton in May and again in Oct. I start looking forward to my return to NW ND the day after I get home to New Jersey. The People are just genuine. Look forward to seeing all of you, and you folks in Powers Lake too.

There is a lot to be said for growing up in a small town! I have many fond memories of living the "simple life" in Flaxton with great friends. It's only boring if you let it be. God bless you all! "Class of '69"!
Attention-In August an Alumni meeting was held. With only 6 former graduates in attendence. We talked about the possibility of a reunion. We are in need of new officers. Some brainstorming was done-a much simpler reunion-maybe not have a banquet. Use food venders. We need you input and help. If there isn't more interest, we will just drop the idea of a reunion. If you are interested in a reunion please contact Bernice Larson @ 701-596-3820. The next Flaxton Alumni meeting will be Wednesday evening, October 17, 2005.
Wonderful site here. We are a growing family looking for a fixer-uper home/farm (farm would be a definate bonus!)in your community to move to. We are looking for the lowest price available (that is still liveable). If someone knows of anything available, please feel free to email us. Thanks!
Hello Flaxton! My daughter Maya and grandson Daniel have been in Flaxton since May and I can't wait to come and visit in Aug! I wish the site had more pictures of the town so I could see where my daughter now lives and get a picture of her new community. I'll just have to come and see myself! Bye for now and thanks for having this nice website!
I also want to thank everyone that keeps the memories alive and would like see us have another reunion. Was in Flaxton about 3 weeks ago and if you have not been there to see the progress from underpass to overpass you shouldn't miss it. Mom tried to explain what it looked like but until I actually saw it I couldn't imagine it. Class of 76 interested in a thirty year reunion next year???? send me an e-mail.
Just wanted to say a big THANKS to the guys and gals that cleaned the Raider Room. If I would have lived closer I would have been there to help you out. Thanks again for keeping the memories alive. Everyone that is interested in another reunion be sure to contact the website.
My mama's sister's daughter, the beautiful Maya, just moved to Flaxton. Please welcome her and look after her as best you can, Good People? THANKS. -Jay (Ojai, California)

Thank you for the informative Flaxton Web site. My great grandparents Eugene and Lottie ? Murdick had a farm near Flaxton, where they lived (1900 census ). My understanding is that was the home of my grandmother Sarah Mabel Holmes ( nee Murdick ). According to BLM records the land Eugene bought was Twp 163N, Range 091W, and portion of section 12. I did see Eugenes name mentioned in the history of Flaxton. Any further information would be appreciated.
I am trying to locate a Betty Day. I called and her telephone had be disconnected. Would anybody know what has happened? Thanking You in Advance. Mildred Niehoff
My dad, Rev. G. Hinz, was pastor at St.Paul's Lutheran church from 1941-1947. My pre-school years in Flaxton were fun and very memorable. I visited there five years ago and was amazed to find the parsonage gone, but was able to see the inside of the church which was just as I remembered it, especially the organ that my mom played. I found your web site by accident, but am very happy I did! Hopefully, you will continue it.

I visited Flaxton on July 2 and enjoyed seeing the town where I lived for a brief time 56-57 years ago. The people in the coffee shop were very friendly. I also took many pictures of places where I lived, went to school, etc. I hope that you decide to keep the website. It is a good one.
I was amazed to find a website for Flaxton. My Grandfather was John Dolphin and his Grand Father was John Edward Dolphin. I recently found a newspaper clipping stating that he was the founder of your town. I hope to visit next year.

Greetings, I can't say I grew up in Flaxton. However do have some fond memories. We moved to Flaxton in July of '96 we lived across the road from the best neighbors in the whole world Alfred and Louise Wolkenhauer. They helped make our experience in North Dakota the best. I worked in Portal at Ammex. We have since moved back to Missouri and would love to hear from anyone who might remember us. May God Bless All The Baker's Kevin, Shana, Andrew

Hi nice website. My father was born here in 1915 and his father Charles Worf was the high school superintendent from 1913-1917.
I would like to thank all the current and past residents of Flaxton that responded to my guestbook entry. All of you have been very helpful in tracing my Piercy and Nelson ancestors in the Flaxton area. My computer suffered a failure and I've lost all the e-mail addresses, so I figured that I would offer you all a thank you here. Hope to visit Flaxton soon.
Great site. Seeing the photos brings back so many great memories.
Thanks again to everone who returned to Flaxton and made this a great weekend, Fun to see all my friends and also Mari Jo, Michael and Jan's. Hope the younger generation will repeat this someday, lot of work but well worth it.
This is an interesting site. I will likely visit the Flaxton area to check out the fishing on Northgate dam sometime.
A very interesting web site. I've been trying to trace my family history for the last couple of months and much of it is tied to Flaxton. Does anyone know if they have a newspaper that might have obituary records from the early 1960's. I guess I'll have to journey out there for a visit one of these days.
My Dad was born in Flaxton in 1910 and his named was Harry Borst. Recently he passed away in 1999. My grandfather's name was James, and was a flax and barely farmer and owned a farm in Flaxton. He oftened said that there was oil on the land but was oftened laughed at by family and friends. I sent an e-mail to the Kenmare e-mail address and many people have responded telling, yes , there is oil in Flaxton. Both of grandparents are buried in the cementary between Bowbells and Kenmare. I have been told that there is a valley named after my grandmother, Anne or Anna valley. The last time that I was in North Dakota was 1966. My grandparents were living in the Bapist home. I can't clearly remember but it was either in Kenmare or Bowbells. Does anyone know where the Borst farm was located or how do you go about searching it's exact location? I would like to take my family on a trip to the area to see there grandfather's birthplace. Thanks, Bruce Borst
What a welcome website! My grandmother, Dorothy, lived in Flaxton most of her life. She passed away a few years back, but up to that point, I visited Flaxton often. Just wanted to drop a line and say thanks for putting this site up. For a Navy guy far from home (I grew up in Williston), it was a sight for sore eyes. Thanks again!
Just wanted to say thank you to all those who worked on making the 100 year celebration such a success. We had a great time and I got to see lots of old friends from way back when I was growing up. I will cherish those memories. Lucille
I just finished reading PEACE LIKE A RIVER, by Leif Enger, son of Don Enger who was band director at FHS in the early 1950s. It's set in Minnesota and North Dakota: a great story and powerful images of the No. Dak. landscape! Read it ... you'll like it! (And it's in paperback now, too...)
Thanks for the wonderful weekend! For those of you that seen me fall in the park on Friday evening, I am doing okay, no broken bones! Thanks for the committee that put it all together, it was a lot of work, but it turned out great! It was nice to see all my classmates (all three of you). One thing that saddens me is that the cancellation stamp I designed was not used. I felt honored that I was asked to design it. I looked forward to seeing how it turned out, and when I got a postcard - it wasn't my design at all! Congrats to my sister Jo for doing so well on that young horse and for letting Shayna work with Cowboy, she was so proud! Again, thanks and congratulations on such a wonderful event! - You Must Be Mike's Sister!
A GREAT BIG 'THANK YOU' TO ALL OF THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE THAT WERE INVOLVED IN ANY WAY TO MAKE THE 100 YEAR CELEBRATION A GREAT SUCCESS! WAS GREAT TO SEE SO MANY PEOPLE COME HOME TO CELEBRATE!
The Centennial Committee is winding down and it is a must to tell all of you that "came home" we are so happy that you were here for the celebration. We are discussing making a float that would be easily entered into neighboring towns' celebrations. We are gathering items for a time capsule, and hoping to preserve the website. Suggestions are not only welcome but needed for all three projects. Thanks again for coming.. Janet Cron, Secretary
My great grandfather, Hugh Donahue, moved from Fargo to Flaxton in 1900. He was President of Flaxton Farmer's Elevator Co, and also worked for Flaxton Farmer's Mutual Fire Insurance Co, Farmers & Merchants Tele Co & the Old Settler's Assn. He was also the Director of the Burke County Fair Assn. If there are any of his descendants in the area I would sure love to hear from you!
We had a terrific time back in Flaxton. Hope everyone keeps in touch. Lyle & Pat Warnke
A big Thank-You to everyone who had a part in organizing the Centennial. I think it was a huge sucess and I am sure everyone who attended enjoyed it. I know I sure did. Thanks again. Dolores Hermansen-Holzinger class of '53.
WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC CELEBRATION. TO ALL OF THE PERSONNEL WHO HAD A PART IN ORGANIZING AND RUNNING THE EVENT A BIG THANK YOU. EVERYTHING WAS MONUMENTAL IN SCOPE AND IT WAS WITHOUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE BEST PARADES I HAVE BEEN TO. A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO THREE OF MY FELLOW CLASSMATES FOR PLANNING OUR CLASS GET TOGETHER. THANK YOU ELSIE, BOB AND BARNEY. IT WAS GREAT. I AM PROUD TO SAY THAT FLAXTON IS MY HOME TOWN. NORMAN PAULSON CLASS OF 52.
I would like to thank everyone involved with setting up the wonderful celebration of Flaxton's 100 Years Centennial. I enjoyed all the activities. Both dances were enjoyed by many and that parade brought back memories of the large homecoming parades we use to have. With the horse showmanship,bingo,karokee,auction and of course "Duke" the dog along with many more things there was always something to do. It was nice seeing so many people I hadn't seen in such a long time. Thank you again to all the people who gave of their time and energy to make this a time to be remembered for anyone that at sometime has been touched by the city of Flaxton. "THANK YOU" Dave Nelson Class "1971"

Hello Everyone! It was great to read all the messages. We could not come for the celebration but hope everyone has a great time. It would have been fun. We look forward to seeing everyone in the fall for hunting season.

Carol and I are anxious to come to Flaxton for the centennial, we lived in Flaxton from 1961 to 1970 and got to know a lot of people and some very good friends.
Wonderful website, keep up the good work.

I sold my first new tractor here in 1956 - John Deere 70 diesel.
So sorry I won't be with you to celebrate. I know you all will have a wonderful time. There is just nothing like one's hometown or the friends you had there. Hello to everyone. God bless you all.

Hello to everyone in Flaxton and to all who are on their way for the centennial celebration! We plan to be in our old hometown for the week-end and hope to see all the Flaxton Raiders of '65 and all former students of "Miss Higdem" there. Thanks to the committees for working so hard to make this event possible and for giving us a chance to relive those great Flaxton memories. See you soon!
My brother Vern told me about this great site! Thanks to everyone for all the work that's been done. Like all of you, I really enjoy a chance to reconnect. I attended school in Flaxton thru 6th grade, leaving town in 1957. I would have been Class of 63 had I stayed. I have great memories of small town life, especially school, baseball, and the railroad. (I was the kid in the depot, you know!) My parents were Palmer and Ethel. I would enjoy hearing more from any of you! I was in Flaxton last summer and won't be able to be there this yea. But I will keep checking the site! (PS ... I still have most of the baseball cards I bought there!)
Great website.. We intend to be at the big celebration, and hope to see the class of '57'. Looks like a fun time to be had.
Have enjoyed the Flaxton Web Site - hoping to see family and friends when I am there. I am always amazed at what great school reunions you have. I've made them all and won't miss this celebration. Charles Graetz
