BORUP, a city in section 16 in Winchester Township, was named in honor of Charles William Wulff Borup, who was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, December 20, 1806, and died in St. Paul, July 6, 1859. He came to the United States in 1828 and to St. Paul in 1848, where in 1854 he established the banking house of Borup and Oakes, the first in Minnesota. His sons, Gustav J. and Theodore Borup, were also prominent businessmen in St. Paul. The city was first settled two miles south of the present location, in section 28, with a Great Northern Railway station and grain warehouse; it was moved in 1892 to its present site, platted in 1899, and incorporated as a village February 15, 1951; the post office was established in 1906.
