From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Coleraine, a city in Iron Range and Trout Lake Townships, bears the name of a township in western Massachusetts. It was chosen in honor of Thomas F. Cole, who was prominent in the early development of the iron mines on the Mesabi Range and president of the Oliver Mining Company but later removed to Arizona, becoming president of a copper mining company there. The city was developed in 1904 as an Oliver Mining Company town by John Campbell Greenway, general superintendent; Oliver Mining Company was formed in the 1890s and later became part of U.S. Steel Corporation. The city is located one mile from Bovey and was designed basically as a residential community; the company-controlled administration screened potential residents. It incorporated as a village on April 20, 1909, and separated from the township on October 31, 1921; its post office was established in 1906.
