The area was first settled in 1876 and called Deseret #3, as part of the LDS Deseret Ward. It was then known as Bloomington and finally, in 1891, named Hinckley to honor Ira Hinckley, the Millard Stake President at the time.
It became a farming community even though part of the Sevier Desert. Irrigation from the Sevier River helped the land become an oasis in the sesert area. It is the last town going west on Highway 50 in Millard County. Highway 50 was known as America's Loneliest Highway.
