History:  

Shevlin was founded as a logging camp in the late 19th century. The town was named after Thomas H. Shevlin, a prominent businessman from Minneapolis. Shevlin resides in Clearwater County which succeeded from Beltrami County. Shortly after Shevlin made a bid to be the county seat for the new county but the town’s folk were defeated in the general election and the county seat went Bagley. Boasting a robust economy the streets of Shevlin were lined with shops, blacksmiths, saloons, hotels, casinos, brothels, and livery stables, a fire claimed most of these buildings in 1904 and again in 1911. Other businesses have made Shevlin their base of operations as well they include Shevlin cooperative creamery, the locker plant, a saw mill, The co-op oil station, a box factory, several general, hardware and drug stores, three saloons a couple of restaurants, a newspaper, a millinery, barbershop, and doctors offices. Wayne Wilde along with his brothers Jim, Danny and Virgil joined together to form Wilde Construction in 1972. Wilde construction buried television cable and later branched into fiber optics. Wilde Construction was sold in 1997 to Mastec North America a Miami based telecommunications company traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

SHEVLIN Township and city were named in honor of the late Thomas Henry Shevlin of Minneapolis. He was born in Albany, N.Y., January 3, 1852; died in Pasadena, Calif., January 15, 1912. He came to Minnesota in 1886, settling in Minneapolis, and was president of several logging and lumber manufacturing companies, cutting much pine timber in this county. He was donor of the Alice A. Shevlin Hall, University of Minnesota, built in 1906. The city was incorporated as a village in 1898, the same year the townsite was platted on 160 acres of land originally owned by Peter Burstad, and the post office was established, with Andrew L. Gordon, postmaster in his store, the first building in the community.
