Toole County, situated in the great state of Montana, was established on August 30, 1914. It is located in the northern part of Montana, encompassing an area of 1,946 square miles, and has its county seat in the city of Shelby. The county is named in honor of Joseph Kemp Toole, who was the first and fourth Governor of Montana and played an important role in the early development of the state.

The history of Toole County goes back to the early exploration of Montana, which was part of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. Lewis and Clark's expedition in 1804-1806 led to the growth of interest in the relatively unexplored vast lands. The region was a significant part of the fur trade, primarily during the mid-1800s, with several American and British trading posts established there. Later, the region was predominantly settled as a result of the Homestead Act of 1862, which encouraged the division of land into smaller parcels, enabling settlers to farm and establish families in the area.

Toole County is well-known for its agriculture and oil production. In 1923, Montana's oil boom began in the county when an oil well named Kevin-Sunburst hit a significant oil deposit. This oil field discovery contributed to the growth of the surrounding communities and led to an increase in job opportunities.

One fun fact about Toole County is the famous "Two Medicine Fight Site," located northeast of present-day Ledger. This site is where the last battle between the Piegan Blackfeet and the Flathead tribes took place in 1866. Today, the site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, providing an insight into Native American history and the conflicts that arose during the settlement of the West.
