- In 1908 Andrew Oyen walked from Spokane, Washington to the Oyen district where he took up a homestead. He couldn’t spend the winter there as he had only a tent for shelter.
By 1911 a man called Billy Bishop had established a stopping place, a tiny store and blacksmith shop known as Bishopburg.
- The Canadian Northern Railway purchased land from Andrew for the town site. In the fall of 1912, the railway arrived in Oyen and on January 17th, 1913, Oyen incorporated as a village.
Oyen is proud to bear the name of this fine Norwegian family whose descendants still live in Alberta. Town of Oyen
