The town was founded by Alexander Gibson in 1886 and named after his wife Mary. Gibson built up several industries in Marysville, most notably a Cotton mill. A large amount of brick Duplexes were built around the mill, most of which are still standing. Marysville was named a National Historic District in 1997 for being one of Canada's last intact 19th-century mill towns. After the cotton mill closed in 1975 , the building was renovated and converted into provincial government offices under the name Marysville Place .
