Hawfields was first populated by Ulster Irish and Western African immigrants as early as the 17th century, but a firm establishment was not achieved until 1740–1750 and was originally called "Haw Old Fields" by the settlers because of the Haw River which runs partially through Hawfields and neighboring Mebane.
