History
McAllister was a stop between Wagner and Packard on the Wisconsin & Michigan (W. & M.) Railway line from Bagley Junction to Iron Mountain. The rail line through McAllister was discontinued in 1938, when the tracks were torn out and the rolling stock sold off. A post office was established in McAllister in 1895 and operated until 1966. Segal Haulotte (1871–1939) served as the first postmaster at McAllister; he held the position for 26 years and also operated a general store. Mike Pissato operated a cheese factory in McAllister in the 1920s. The cheese factory was purchased by Theodore Phillips in 1929. In 1946, the Franciscan Friars of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Province in Pulaski purchased a riverside property in McAllister as a summer camp and retreat, dubbing it Villa Alvernia.
