Concord was first settled around 1807, and it was established as a town in 1812 from the town of Willink (now defunct). At the time of its formation, the town stretched across the entire south part of the county. The town lost much of its territory in the subsequent formation of the Towns of Collins, North Collins, and Sardinia.
