History

Forman was founded in 1883 by Cornelius Forman. In 1886, the county seat was transferred to Forman from Minor.

Until 1967, Forman was the only town in North Dakota, as all other incorporated communities were either villages or cities. It had become so by a special legal process. In that year it became a city, because the state legislature declared that all incorporated communities were to be cities without distinction of rank.
