The city of Quinter is built at the location of an old railroad switching site called Melota. A community named Familton' was built there in 1885, consisting originally of a hotel. The U.S. government would not establish a post office under the Familton name, because of possible confusion with other names in the state, so another had to be chosen. The name Quinter was settled upon, named after Rev. James Quinter, a local Baptist Brethren minister.
Longtime resident Waldo McBurney, age 104, was proclaimed the oldest worker in the United States in national media in November 2006 and again in 2020.
