Griffin, North Dakota is a town that’s so poorly documented, so forgotten, and so wiped out, that its story is, without exaggeration, a step away from being lost forever. Hopefully with the help of this documentary, we can change that.
The Bowman County town was originally settled in the 1890's and was originally named Atkinson, but when the Milwaukee Road railroad came through in 1907, Atkinson was renamed Griffin. It was also a stop on the Yellowstone Trail.
In this video, we explore the remaining structures on the site, including several homes and trailers, as well as the beautiful old Atkinson Schoolhouse and a Milwaukee Road boxcar.
It was never a massive settlement, but it was full of life and stories that deserve to be remembered.
