Around 1804, George Ellice, son of Lord Alexander Ellice, built a mill on the west bank of the English River, that became a settlement bearing his name: George's Mill. Circa 1833, the place was known in English as Howick (named after either Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, or his son Henry Grey, 3rd Earl Grey, both known as Viscount Howick), but known in French as Village de la Fourche (French for "Village of the Fork" in refence to the nearby confluence of the Châteauguay and English Rivers).

On October 29, 1915, the Village Municipality of Howick was established when it split off from the Parish Municipality of Très-Saint-Sacrement.

On May 15, 2010, the village municipality changed statutes to become a regular municipality.
