History:

ST. HILAIRE, a city in section 6 of River Falls Township, on the west side of the Red Lake River in the northwest corner of River Falls, was platted in 1882 and incorporated as a village on July 4, 1883. It had a station of the Great Northern Railway; the former railway branch from Crookston to St. Hilaire began its regular train service on July 4, 1883. There are three versions of the city's naming: first, a Frenchman named St. Hilaire lived in a shack near the river, selling items like gunpowder and tobacco, and when an item was needed, residents would "go to St. Hilaire" for it, and the name stuck; second, in 1882, a Frenchman named Arthur Yvernault bought land on which the townsite was then platted and named it for his hometown in France; third, and most likely, it was named by Hon. Frank Ives for the French statesman and author Jules BarthTlemy-Saint-Hilaire, who was born in Paris, August 19, 1805, and died November 24, 1895. Ives was the postmaster when the post office began in 1882 while still part of Polk County.
