History of the Beaver Valley

Kimberley was named after the First Earl of Kimberley, a British Liberal politician by the name of John Wodehouse. The first settlers to Kimberley began in the mid 1850’s. Right from the early settling days, the ‘Cuckoo Valley’, Kimberley, enjoyed a blessed and multitude of industrial and commercial activities. In 1861, John Hurlburt erected a sawmill which was followed by the (current ‘Grist Mill’) Mill House Store in 1864 owned by William Purdy.
They say life comes full circle and this seems true for the current ‘hamlet’ of Kimberley. In 1916 residents of Kimberley petitioned to take Kimberley from a ‘hamlet’ to a ‘police village’. The petition was passed on November 26th 1916. Today, we are once again known as a ‘hamlet’.
