History
![](../I/m/Starbuck_Depot.jpg)
Starbuck was platted in the spring of 1882, is a village of the Northern Pacific railway, adjoining the western end of Lake Minnewaska. The growth and settlement of Pope County were greatly retarded for many years by the lack of railway and shipping facilities, which obliged the settlers to go long distances, into adjoining counties, to market their products.[7]
Reportedly the town was named after Stabekk in Bærum in Akershus county, Norway. However, according to Geographical Names of Manitoba, the village of Starbuck in that Canadian province is thought to have been named after the town in Minnesota by a contractor working for the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1885. It states that Starbuck, Minnesota, was named after William H. Starbuck of New York and who financed the Little Falls and Dakota Railroad.[8]
