History:

GREENBUSH, a city in section 10 of Hereim, was named for the first evergreen trees seen near the "ridge road," as one comes eastward from the Red River valley. These are spruce trees, about two miles northeast of the village. An early trail, later a wagon road, and latest the Great Northern Railway, here began a curving course along a gravel beach ridge of Glacial Lake Agassiz, following this beach for about 20 miles, or nearly to the site of Roseau. Early settlers were Polish, Bohemian, and Scandinavian immigrants; the city was called West Greenbush or New Greenbush for many years because the first site, now called Old Greenbush, was located on a ridge two miles northeast in section 10. The post office was established in 1892, first on the Hedges farm in section 36 of Barto Township, with Fedelia Hedges, postmaster; in 1899 it was moved to Olaf Hildahl's general store in section 31 of Skagen Township and in 1904 was moved again to the present townsite when Hildahl moved his store there.
