Osgood, North Dakota
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Osgood is a city in Cass County, North Dakota in the United States. The town is a suburb of nearby West Fargo, which is located three miles north of Osgood. The city is located on the east side of the Sheyenne River. Osgood was founded in 1884 as "Garfield" (named in honor of the recently assassinated President James A. Garfield). The name was changed to "Osgood", in honor of the landowner who ceded the site to C.C. Furnberg, who located a country store and post office at the town site.
The post office and country store ceased operations in 1953. Furnberg's son, Oscar, donated the store to the Cass County, North Dakota Historical Society, where it was restored and put on display at Bonanzaville, USA
There is a housing development in south west Fargo, North Dakota. Osgood is no longer a town but it is only a housing development, and retail shopping area.
