Isabella, Manitoba
Isabella is a settlement in Prairie View Municipality, Manitoba, Canada. People first began to settle in the Isabella district in the late 1870s. People came to Isabella by various means: foot, ox-cart or horse and wagons.
A post office was established on 16-15-25W in 1906 and was named after a Scottish woman, Isabella Gould Taylor, who was the oldest person in the district at the time. The School District was also established about this time. There was no railway into the town of Isabella until 1909 when the Canadian Northern Railway was built from Hallboro to Isabella. It still contains a store, and 4 other museums, and a post office/hall.
It is virtual ghost town today.
