Fenn is an unincorporated community in Idaho County, Idaho, United States. It is located on U.S. Route 95 on the Camas Prairie, 7 miles (11 km) northwest of Grangeville and 8 miles (13 km) south of Cottonwood. Fenn has a post office with ZIP code 83531.[2]

Originally Tharp, it was named in 1915 (or earlier)[3] after the Fenn family.[4] Stephen S. Fenn (1820–92)[5] arrived in Florence from California in 1862 with his wife and four children.[6] He was an early settler, attorney, administrator, speaker of territorial legislature, and a territorial delegate to Congress. His son, Major Frank A. Fenn (1853–1927),[7] also of many professions, was the speaker of the first state legislature. Frank's son Lloyd (1884–1953) also served in the legislature.[4][8][9][10][11]

An earlier settlement a few miles north, Denver, was mostly abandoned after the Camas Prairie Railroad bypassed it. A grain elevator was constructed in Fenn in 1918,[12] served by the railroad until the abandonment of its Second Subdivision line to Grangeville in late 2000.[13][14]
