Comments
================================================================================
Wallace Petrie came to Dakota Territory in 1885, taking out a homestead
in what is now Emmons Co., ND, in 1886. His wife to be came by train
from Michigan to Bismarck where Wallace met her and they were married.
He was both a rancher and a merchant, and prospered at both. His first
store, together with his sisters Cash and Annie, was at Winchester.
When Linton became county seat in 1898, he moved the store to Linton
and in 1909-1910 erected a new two-story building from native sandstone.
>From this facility, customers could buy their groceries, hardware,
furniture, and clothing. One family member indicated that prior to his
death, W. E. Petrie owned 27 quarters of land. He donated the land for
the town site of Linton in 1899.
