The town of North East takes its name from its position in the county.
Part of the town was from the Great Nine Partners Patent of 1697, and part was from the Little Nine Partners Patent of 1706. The town was first settled by people from Connecticut, who located here from 1725–30, in a separate area called "The Oblong", which was not part of the Patent.
The Town of Northeast was formed in 1788. Parts of the town were taken to form the towns of Milan (1818) and Pine Plains (1823).[citation needed]
In 1807, and for some time thereafter, a traveling Methodist minister would preach once a fortnight. A slate company was formed in the town in 1812. During the Revolutionary War, iron ore was taken former the former Maltby ore bed (then known as the Dakin ore bed) to cast cannon for the irregular forces.[citation needed]

The northern town line is the border of Columbia County, but a small part of the northern town line borders Mount Washington, Massachusetts. The eastern town line is the border of Connecticut.
