FW Roach Elevator – one of the first grain elevators was built and
managed by FW Roach. The earliest information I have is a picture from the
early 1900’s and the article in the Ward County Independent on Sept. 27, 1905
in which he stated … “When Marketing your
grain, visit the Roach Elevator and I feel certain you will be satisfied with
the treatment you receive. I can guarantee to give you price equal to any in
the state. I am determined as one grain man to make Minot the best marketing
point in the northwest. Remember the FW Roach Elevator near the Great Northern
Track in Minot.” Roach was also one
of the earlier land developers in the Minot downtown area.
