Town History

Minneapolis is located in Hennepin County in east central Minnesota. French explorers arrived in the area around 1680. Fort Snelling, just south of present-day Minneapolis, was built in 1819 by the United States Army. It attracted traders, settlers and merchants, spurring growth in the area. The Minnesota Territorial Legislature authorized Minneapolis as a town in 1856, and it was incorporated as a city in 1867. The name Minneapolis is attributed to Charles Hoag, the city's first schoolmaster, who suggested Minnehapolis, derived from Minnehaha, and combined mni, a Dakota Sioux word for water, and polis, the Greek word for city.

During the National Bank Note Era, the population of Minneapolis was 13,066 in 1870, growing to 464,356 in 1930. It's highest population was 521,718 in 1950, and the current population is estimated at 425,403 (2018).

Minneapolis had 29 National Banks during the Bank Note Era, and 25 of those banks issued National Bank Notes.
