The settlement is a small agricultural community on the former [SR-30](/source/Utah_State_Route_30_(1935-1966)) (1935-1966), {{convert|4|mi|km}} northwest of [Moroni](/source/Moroni%2C_Utah) and {{convert|6|mi|km}} south of [Fountain Green](/source/Fountain_Green%2C_Utah). It was settled in 1871 during a post-Civil War period when several patriotic names developed. The town was originally named ''Draper'' for an early settler, but was renamed ''Freedom'' in 1877.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Utah Genealogical and Historical Magazine, Volumes 9-10|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=L7M3AQAAIAAJ&pg=RA1-PA128|year=1918|page=128}}</ref>

The community has always been closely associated with the town of Moroni, even being included in its census precinct through most of its history.
