The first settlement was developed two miles south of Glendora at Black Bayou. When the railroad was built through the territory in 1883 a station was located there and called Glendora. The town immediately grew. A post office was established and a voting precinct was established. Cane Lake Lumber Company built a large saw mill there and it operated until 1909 and then was moved to another site.
