History
The community is named, in a syllabic abbreviation, after the secretary-treasurer and two councilors of the executive governing council of the RM of Barrier Valley in 1924. They were: Archie Campbell and Ervie Hanson, councilors; and William Pierce, secretary-treasurer.[2][3] Archerwill incorporated as a village on January 1, 1947.[4]
Archerwill is located on the Wadena-to-Tisdale branch line of the Canadian Pacific Railway. However, the nearly 55-year-old railway station[5] was torn down in the early 1980s; and the nearly 60-year-old Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and UGG elevators[6] were torn down in the 1990s.
The Archerwill Café (probably built in the late 1920s),[7] most recently operating as Diner Thirty Five, burned down in a fire on June 23, 2016. The actions of the Archerwill Volunteer Fire Department, along with the Rose Valley Volunteer Fire Department — who arrived from Script error: No such module "convert". away — saved the adjacent Archerwill Hotel and the post office.[8]
