Lindbergh is a hamlet in Northern Alberta, Canada within the County of St. Paul No. 19.[2] It is located approximately east of Highway 41 and northwest of Lloydminster. The first settlers of Lindbergh arrived some time in 1906, and by 1911 a ferry, school, and cemetery had been constructed in the area. When the CNR reached nearby Heinsburg in 1927, a post office was moved to Lindbergh from Riverview along with a store. In 1946 oil companies drilling near Lindbergh found salt and began the planning of a new salt plant which was completed in 1948.[3]
