The township of Hendren was organized with its present boundaries in April of 1911.  It was named after Reverend William T. Hendren.  Rev. Hendren came to Neillsville in 1872 prior to serving as Presbyterian Minister in Minnesota for 6 years.  He was largely instrumental in construction of the Presbyterian Church at Neillsville and was pastor there for many years.  He moved to Greenwood in about 1901 and was still active there when he died in 1920.  Hendren Township was formerly a part of Eaton Township.  The first community to be settled in Hendren was Tioga.
