The town of Goshen was officially incorporated in 1781.
The area of Lithia was named in 1898 when a post office was opened on a triangle of land surrounded by Route 9 (the Berkshire Trail) and forks of Spruce Corner Road. The name is based on the lithium ore spodumene which was found nearby in the mineral deposits on the Barrus Farm. The Lithia Post Office closed in 1985.
