Fairchild is a village in Eau Claire County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 550 at the 2010 census. The village is located within the Town of Fairchild.
The Fairchild post office has been operating since 1870. The village was named for Lucius Fairchild, the 10th Governor of Wisconsin.
Located in the heart of the southeast corner of Eau Claire County, Fairchild, Wisconsin was started in 1868 by a group of pioneers. It was a town rich in forestry and the early settlers began the sawmill that drew many loggers to live and work in the village. The community was first known as Grubtown, then as Pedrick’s Mill, before being incorporated as Fairchild in 1880, and named for Governor Fairchild who was the Governor of Wisconsin at the time. Nathaniel C. Foster is a name that has significant meaning to the village of Fairchild.
Fairchild was once a town sought after with the hope of creating a life rich in timber and lumber. When the timber ran out, so did the people. The mill closed in 1905 and the villagers lost trust that this city was a viable option for making a life in logging.
