History

Hobbs was founded in 1878 by Henderson Hobbs. He built his farm just next to the Lake Erie & Western Railroad that ran through the area.[3] A Christian church was founded in 1884. They converted an old school house turned blacksmith shop into a church in 1896. A new building was constructed in 1911.[4] A Methodist Episcopal Church was founded in the community in 1909 after separating from the church in Windfall.[5] As of 1914, Hobbs had a population of 200. During that time, mills for flour and wood were the primary economic drivers.[3]

The post office at Hobbs has been in operation since 1876.[6]
