BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
The third of James J. and Mary Mehegan Hill’s ten children, Louis Warren Hill was
born in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1872. He, along with his older brother James, was
schooled at home before attending Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire and Yale
University.
He began working for his father at the Great Northern Railway Company immediately
after graduation and began pursuit of his own ultimately extremely successful
investments in iron mining in northeastern Minnesota. While the eldest Hill son
James had been groomed as their father’s successor, Louis’s capable management of a
Great Northern extension over the Rockies in 1901 moved him into position as heir to
the Hill business empire.
Also in 1901 Louis married Maud Van Cortlandt Taylor, child of a well-known New York
family. The couple moved into a large home next door to James J. and Mary Hill on
Summit Avenue in St. Paul and together had four children: Louis Warren Jr., James
Jerome II (always called Jerome), Maud Van Cortlandt and Cortlandt Taylor. The
family traveled the United States and the world and spent much of their time at
North Oaks Farm, just north of St. Paul, where Louis built a chalet-style
retreat.
In the mid ‘00s Louis began to take over management of the Great Northern Railway. He
was named president in 1907 and board chairman in 1912, although his father James
continued to retain much control until his death in 1916. Louis expanded his
interests far beyond railroads: he was at the forefront of the oil and auto
transport industries and was a major player in land development in Montana and
California, in finance, and in copper mining.
One of Louis’ greatest legacies was his enthusiastic promotion of U.S. tourism and
the national park system. He was a major force in the creation, promotion, and
development of Glacier National Park in Montana, where he built several resorts. He
also maintained an interest in the American Indian tribes of Montana and became a
collector of Blackfoot material, now housed in the Science Museum of Minnesota.
Louis W. Hill died in St. Paul in 1948 at the age of 75.

SCOPE AND CONTENTS
This extensive collection of the personal papers and business records of Louis Warren
Hill document nearly every aspect of his private and public life from his teenage
years until his death in 1948.
The papers are comprised of several major sections: incoming and outgoing
correspondence, financial records, including records of trusts and investments, and
records of businesses and charities with which Louis W. Hill was involved. Notable
business ventures represented include iron mining in the Mesabi range, timbering in
Oregon, copper mining in Arizona, oil drilling in Montana, banking and finance,
hotels and development in Glacier National Park, and land development in Monterey,
California. Some records related to the Great Northern Railway Company, of which
Louis was chairman and president, are contained within the papers; these complement
what exists within the Railroad Records at the Minnesota Historical Society, which
are much more extensive.
Major charities which Hill founded or was active in that are represented in the
papers include the James J. Hill Reference Library, the Louis W. and Maud Hill
Family Foundation, Goodfellows, and United Charities. The Hill Library and Family
Foundation papers also include records of the ownership, care, and use of the James
J. Hill and Louis W. Hill papers prior to their acquisition by the Minnesota
Historical Society.
The Louis W. Hill papers also include records of the estates of James J. Hill and
Mary T. Hill, the administration of which Louis was heavily involved in, as well as
the estate records of Louis himself. A large series of records of North Oaks Farm in
North Oaks, Minnesota, which Louis W. Hill was given by his mother before her death,
continue the farm records which exist in the James J. Hill papers. Records related
to other residential and investment properties owned by Hill may be found in the
Real Estate and other series.
The Ephemera, Photographs and Graphic Materials, Newspaper Clippings, Printed
Materials, and Maps and Plans series include materials that have been at some point
separated from the General Correspondence and other series; these have been kept
separate rather than replaced in their original location due to the time required to
interfile each piece; in some cases separation sheets or penciled notes indicate
original locations and associations.
Much of the material in the papers dating to after Louis W. Hill's death in 1948 are
later accessions donated by Louis W. Hill, Jr.

GREAT NORTHERN IRON ORE PROPERTIES
Great Northern Iron Ore Properties was established as a trust in 1906 by the
Great Northern Railway and James J. Hill, through an agreement with the Lake
Superior Company, Ltd., which was the railroad's holding company for iron
ore properties. Ownership was distributed among Great Northern stock
holders, with Louis W., James N., and Walter Hill and E.T. Nichols as
trustees. Included in the series are records of the subsidiary North Star
and Leonard Iron Mining companies and "private" companies, in which Louis W.
Hill invested money from his family's trusts, including the Alexandria,
Dean, Monterey Ore, Neath, St. Anthony, Mesaba Security, Jefferson, and
Wysox companies. The records concern these mines, their leases, sales,
production by year, owners, operators, dividends, taxes, freight rates,
investments, and legislation.

ARIZONA COPPER MINING
Series is composed of records of three copper mining companies with
operations in Arizona in which Louis W. Hill invested and held a

1907, Shattuck Arizona Copper Company, incorporated in Minnesota in 1904,
and Shattuck Denn Mining Corporation, a consolidation of the first two
companies incorporated in Delaware in 1925. The records are scanty; the
majority relate to Shattuck Arizona Copper Company and consist of carbon

OIL PAPERS
Series is comprised of records related to Louis W. Hill's ventures into oil
production in Montana. He began researching oil in Montana in 1916 and
started explorations in 1919. In 1920 he secured leases on the Blackfoot
Indian Reservation and began drilling the next year. He expanded his oil
interests in Montana throughout the 1920s despite dry holes and trouble
attracting investors; in 1925 he struck oil in the Kevin-Sunburst area and
additional nearby properties also proved successful. All land is identified
by lease name, which was customary in the oil industry. The records also
include data on separate oil and gas companies in which Louis W. Hill
invested which operated in Oklahoma and Kansas. Later oil records may be
found in the Cascadia Development and Production Company series.

FORT BENTON COMPANY
The Fort Benton Company was an investment firm which served as a holding
company for lands in Glacier County Montana which Louis W. Hill did not want
held in his own name. The lands had been held under the name of George W.
Noffsinger but in 1931 an issue involving potential judgements against him
arose and the holding company was organized in Minnesota on May 13 of that
year. The company held various securities in addition to the land; it was
voluntarily dissolved in December 1936, but the land in question remained in
the name of the company until 1947. Addition data on the properties can be
found in the Glacier County, Montana, lands records in the Real Estate
series of the Louis W. Hill papers.

and four children, 1919 "grandchildren's" trusts formed by Mary T. Hill for
each of her grandchildren, ABC trusts formed by Louis W. Hill for his sons

the Northwestern Trust Company, for which Louis W. Hill was a beneficiary
but not trustee. Additional records related to investments made for these
trusts can be found in the "Investments" series and tax data can be found in

NORTH OAKS FARM
Series is comprised of the records of North Oaks Farm, a 5,000 acre hobby and
breeding farm in North Oaks, Minnesota, 10 miles north of St. Paul. Louis W.
Hill was the sole inheritor of the farm after his mother’s death in 1921.
The series includes primarily correspondence, financial records pertaining
to daily operation of the farm, and records regarding the residences
constructed on the farm. Also included are the records of the North Oaks
Farm and Bond Trust, a trust established in 1925 which owned most of the
real property on the farm. The correspondence is arranged in its original
order of three separate alphabetical subject series; the reason for the
different series is unknown. Additional financial records may be found in
the James J. Hill estate series, the Mary T. Hill estate series, and the
John J. Toomey files. Earlier records are included in the James J. Hill
papers.

JAMES J. HILL ESTATE ADMINISTRATOR'S RECORDS
These are Louis W. Hill's records as administrator of his father James J.
Hill's estate. James died intestate in May 1916; the series includes
extensive legal documentation of the process required to inventory,
appraise, and divide his estate among his heirs and creditors. The United
Securities Corporation was established in 1916 by James's heirs as a holding
company for those parts of the estate which the heirs did not want to divide
or to own personally. Its records as well as a small amount of records
related to other James J. Hill business ventures are here included.

GOODFELLOWS
Goodfellows was a charitable organization composed of St. Paul businessmen,
including Louis W. Hill, which formed in 1914 to provide food, fuel,
clothing, and gifts for the poor and needy during the holiday season. The
club normally operated from December 1 to January 1 but seems to have also
been active in November 1918 to provide medical care during the influenza
epidemic. The organization continued through the 1920 holiday season when it
was succeeded by the Santa Claus Club. Hill was at one time president of the
organization and provided space in the Great Northern building and use of
his own staff for its administrative functions. The records consist in large
part of an office card file of clients, reports of investigations, and
records of distribution.
