Oak Ridges was established in 1799 by Joseph Geneviève and a group of French who were granted land by the British. Oak Ridges was initially named Windham after the current Secretary of War for Britain, who happened to be a friend of Geneviève. In 1840, this settlement area from the King-Vaughan town line to the 15th sideroad became known as Oak Ridges. The western half of Oak Ridges was in King, with the eastern half in the township of Whitchurch.
Oak Ridges was annexed into Richmond Hill in 1971 following a difficult period for the community in the 1960s which saw high unemployment, and a lack of interest from commercial developers. In the last decade, Oak Ridges has been the source of a rapid growth in business, particularly along the Yonge Street corridor. This has come in the wake of advanced efforts of Richmond Hill to stimulate development in the community, which has transformed Oak Ridges into one of the premiere communities in Ontario.

Drynoch was built by Macleod in 1846 and was the headquarters of his vast 600 acre farming operation.
