The first settler arrived around 1786, but the community was not founded until 1836.

In November 17, 1957, the heads of the U.S. Mafia held the Apalachin Meeting at the home of Joseph Barbara, a conference of mobsters who had gathered to iron out various issues in the underworld. The gathering was quickly broken up when a curious state trooper turned up and sent some of the most powerful gangsters in the country fleeing through the surrounding countryside. In this context, Mafiosi and the FBI sometimes just refer to the meeting as Apalachin. This meeting was humorously portrayed in the opening sequence of the 1999 motion picture Analyze This, which starred Robert DeNiro and Billy Crystal.
