[[Beebe Plain]] was colonized around 1789 by Zeeba Beebe of [[Connecticut]]. A saw mill was established as the town's first business in 1863. By 1869, Beebe Plain had a church, two stores, a post office, a customs post and some houses. The village separated from the township of Stanstead and became a separate municipality. From 1874 to 1935, a [[Chautauqua]]-style holiday resort, including a meeting hall, a dining room and about 30 country cottages, attracted thousands of people, mainly Americans from New York and Boston. The granite industry is the major force in the area's economic history.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}

Beebe Junction was the international crossing point for the 1870 [[Massawippi Valley Railway]] (later the [[Quebec Central Railway]], leased by [[Canadian Pacific Railway]] and abandoned in 1990). The line ran from the Canadian Pacific mainline in [[Sherbrooke]]-[[Lennoxville, Quebec|Lennoxville]] south to [[Newport (city), Vermont|Newport, Vermont]], where onward connections were available via [[White River Junction, Vermont|White River Junction]] to [[New York City]] and [[Boston]]. The last [[Quebec City]]-Sherbrooke-Newport passenger train ran in 1960. The historic Beebe station is now a private residence.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}

A building located at 3, Rue Principale (Main Street) is in a similar state to the Haskell Library—a line runs through its north aisle. In this case, however, Canadian citizens are not allowed to access the building without reporting to the U.S. customs first, and then to the Canadian customs when going back.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}

Access to homes on Rue Canusa (Canusa Street) is made through the Canada–US border. U.S. citizens residing there have to report to their customs if travelling south, and to the Canadian customs if travelling elsewhere in Beebe.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}
