Abram McCormick "A. M." Fridley[1] (1817 in Painted Post, New York – March 26, 1888 in Fridley, Minnesota) was a Minnesota politician and member of the Minnesota House of Representatives, and was the namesake of Fridley Township, Minnesota, which later became the city of Fridley, Minnesota.

Fridley was a Winnebago Indian agent, a lawyer, farmer, and merchant.[2] He and his family were pioneers of the Fridley Township in Anoka County.[2] Fridley was a land agent of the St. Paul and Pacific Railroad Company (SPPR) and its successor, the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway Company.[2] This railroad would build north from Minneapolis into Fridley Township.

Early life

He was born in Painted Post, New York. Fridley read law and became a lawyer in Corning, New York. At age 21 he became a Deputy Sheriff of Steuben County, New York, and a Federal Government Customs Collector. In 1850, he was nominated by President Millard Fillmore on December 16, 1850, to the post of Winnebago Indian Agent.[3] He came to Long Prairie, Minnesota in 1851.

Minnesota Legislator

He served in the Territorial House 1855 (District 3); House 1869-71 (District 4); House 1879-80 (District 30).

Death

He died on March 26, 1888, at his residence in Fridley, of "dropsy of the heart."[4][5]

He was buried in Minneapolis in Lakewood Cemetery. His grave is marked with a large memorial.
