A Quebec merchant D.R. Stewart was the earliest known settler in Kaipokok Bay. He carried out his trading until 1837, at which time his business was purchase by the Hudson Bay Company. Antonie Perrault and Jean-Baptise Jacque both French Canadians, arrived separately in the same year around 1843.

Perraut not only hunted fished and trapped for himself he also engaged in an active fur trade. His undaunted perseverance and strategic lobation won him the distinction of turning tables on the Hudson Bay Company which closed their post when they could not make Perrault give up or sell out.

Kaipokok bay was where many of the Indians traded in fall, winter and spring, sometimes camping for a month or so before returning to the interior. An official cenus of the bay in the interior. An official cenus of the bay in 1935 showed 41 settlers and Inuit, most of whom came from other parts of the Labrador Coast. The shift from individual homesteads to the community of Postville began in 1941 when the Pentecostal pastor moved from Ailik located at the outer edge of the bay. Pastor Gillette built another church at Postville were he spent the winter near the people and moved to Ailik with them for summer fishing. When Pastor Gillette moved to the present site of Postville, he found only one house and some wild rhubarb there. He named the site Postville because it had been the location of the Hudson Bay Company always had been refereed to as the Post.

Several attempts to establish a logging and sawmilling operation in 1930 and 1946 failed but Pastor Gillette managed to start astable business that employed most of the population.
The same year when several Postville residents nearly lost their lives bringing supplies from Hopedale he started a store. His logging and sawmilling operation closed in 1956 and a year
later burned to the ground. The Provincial Government took over the store operation in 1952.
