During the period of 1890
to 1910, the population in the Town of Meteor was based on the lumberjacks
who worked in the area. They lived in temporary homes which were
deserted after the timber ran out. The railroad was removed about
1910.
The village called Meteor
was located in the vicinity of the school which is today known as the Meteor
School. A general store, post office, saloon, and rooming house operated
as services to the lumbermen. A large log-landing was located near
the railroad tracks.
