Constance, Minnesota

Constance, Minnesota

Constance was the name of an unincorporated community in Anoka County, Minnesota, United States. The site of Constance village, now abandoned, is within the present boundaries of the city of Andover.

History

The village of Constance was founded in section 13 of Grow Township sometime prior to 1897 and had a post office from 1897 until 1955.[1] Constance formerly had a station of the Burlington Northern Railroad, since defunct. Little trace of the village itself remains, and Grow Township incorporated as the city of Andover in 1973, but Constance Boulevard remains a main two-lane road in the local area.
