History:  

BARRETT, a city of Lien and Elk Lake Townships, platted in May 1887 and incorporated on December 11, 1889, and the adjoining Barrett Lake, commemorate Gen. Theodore Harvey Barrett, who after the Civil War owned and conducted an extensive farm in Grant and Stevens Counties, residing near Moose Island station in Stevens County. He was born in Orangeville, Wyoming County, N.Y., August 27, 1834, and died in this county at Herman, July 20, 1900. He settled in St. Cloud, Minn., 1856, was a captain in the Ninth Minnesota Regiment, 1862-63; was colonel of the 62d U.S. Colored Infantry, 1864-65, and was brevetted brigadier general, March 13, 1865. The post office was established as Fridhem, 1877-87, a Swedish term meaning "home of peace," changing to Barrett in 1887; the village had a station on the Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie Railroad (Soo Line).
