The first business opened in 1826, and a post office was opened in 1850.

The village of East Randolph was incorporated in 1881. On March 16, 2010, referenda were held in both the village of Randolph and East Randolph to dissolve each entity into a hamlet within the town of Randolph (with the northernmost portion of East Randolph being absorbed by the town of Conewango). Both referenda passed; as such, the village of East Randolph ceased to exist after December 31, 2011. At the time of the village's dissolution, the mayor was current Cattaraugus County legislator Howard Van Rensselaer. There were about 629 people living in East Randolph in 2009.
