History:

CARLTON, a city and the county seat in Twin Lakes Township, took its name, like the county, in honor of Reuben B. Carlton. From the building of the Northern Pacific Railroad in 1870 to 1891, this place was called Northern Pacific Junction, being at the junction of that transcontinental line with the older Lake Superior and Mississippi line. The city began as a lumbering community, with power supplied by the St. Louis River and Otter Creek for a planing mill; the St. Joseph and Mary log cabin church was built in the early 1800s west of the city.
