Perkins was founded around 1872 by the Cascade Company, which made charcoal kilns and cut lumber in the community. It was originally located on the Whitefish Branch of the Chicago and North Western Railway. A post office opened in Perkins on May 7, 1894; John Fuhriman was the first postmaster.[4] The community was named for Josiah Perkins, an early settler.[5]
