Haskell was once the site of a watering place known as Willow Pond Springs. Thomas F. Tucker settled the site in 1879 upon the encouragement of his brother, a member of Randolph B.

The town was renamed to Haskell the same year.<ref name="TexasHandbook">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
