History

Settlement began in the early 19th century. In 1831, its first mill was built. In 1852, residents of the Saint-Clément and Saint-Louis parishes petitioned the Archbishop of Montreal for the creation of a new parish, which was granted after land was offered in the new settlement for a church. It construction began in 1863 and completed a year later.{{cite web |title=Historique |url=https://www.st-etiennedebeauharnois.qc.ca/historique/ |website=www.st-etiennedebeauharnois.qc.ca |publisher=Municipalité de St-Étienne-de-Beauharnois |access-date=28 September 2023 |language=fr-FR |date=2018}}

Its post office opened in 1865, and two years later, on January 1, 1867, the municipality was established out of territory from Saint-Clément (since 1957 part of Beauharnois) and Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague. It was named after Saint Stephen and Beauharnois County in which it is located. On October 26, 1869, it changed statutes and became the Parish Municipality of Saint-Etienne. This reverted back to Municipality of Saint-Étienne-de-Beauharnois on March 15, 1969.{{cite web |title=Répertoire des entités géopolitiques: Saint-Étienne-de-Beauharnois (municipalité) 1.1.1867 - ... |url=https://www.mairesduquebec.com/mairesduquebec/munic.php?id=1638 |website=www.mairesduquebec.com |publisher=Institut généalogique Drouin |access-date=28 September 2023}}
