- Fallon is an unincorporated community in Morton County, North Dakota, United States. Fallon is located about 35 miles southwest of Bismarck, North Dakota, roughly 8 miles northeast of Flasher, North Dakota, on the former Mandan-Black (also known as the Bismarck-Deadwood) Hills stage trail. Another town located along this line is , located about 4 miles northwest of Saint Anthony, North Dakota. The settlement started to develop in the late 1890s, and a post office was opened April 2, 1900 with James A. Fallon, a native of Ireland, as Postmaster, who is also most likely the town's namesake. In 1909 it was relocated to the northeast with H. S. Freiz as Postmaster. The peak population was only about 10 people, due to the towns inland location away from an operational railroad or highway, thus very little development ever occurred. The post office closed November 15, 1914 with mail to Flasher. Since then, the town has withered considerably. There was once a store, St. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, and a Catholic Boarding School on site, and although they were torn down decades ago, multiple scattered foundations can still be found. Today, there are currently two buildings left at the site, a community center or possibly town/dance hall, and a house, formerly the church Parish, which appears to have been last occupied in 2008. St. Peter and Paul Catholic cemetery is located just to the west of the town, and is frequently maintained. In summer 2017, a man briefly moved to the townsite in two RV's to the north of the house, but his presence didn't last long. In early 2018, the population was back to zero. The campers were overgrown with weeds, and there was so sign of him. He may have left for medical reasons, or possibly because of the unusually harsh 2017-18 winter. (en)
