Newdale was named by Edward Cook, the area's first postmaster.

It is derived from 'new' meaning new district and 'dale' meaning the low ground south of the little mountain (Mosquito hill).

Mr. Cook's application for postmaster was approved circa 1880-81 and he became the "Father" of Newdale. This first location of Newdale is not the same as it is today. It was located about 5 km (3 miles) to the south.

The original area is now known as "Old dale." When the CP rail line came through in 1885, the town moved to its present location, to be near the site of the rail line.

Newdale History Books (Newdale 1870 – 1970 – 2000) are still available. They can be purchased at the Municipal Office for $60.00.
