THE
CITY OF HARTMAN
|
Message
from the Mayor
The
city of Hartman was founded in 1881. One of the
original landholders where the town is currently
located wanted it to be called "Coalburg". T. Hartman
who was a conductor and then later promoted to superintendent
for the railroad, told the townspeople that if they
would name it after him, he would have a train station
and platform built and see that the trains would
stop there on a regular schedule.
The
early settlers to this community were farmers and
coal miners. In the early days, Hartman had a train
depot, a jail, a saloon and a bank. These are all
gone now but the community is still rich with the
history.
Hartman
is located on 64 highway 10 miles west of Clarksville.
It is 3 miles east of Coal Hill and 5 miles from
1-40.

We
have a park located off of Highway 64 that was built by
the Corp of Engineers. It offers an area to put a boat
in the Horse head Creek, or just have a picnic with the
family. Located also in the park is a softball field.
We
also have a good volunteer fire department that serves
the city along with the surrounding community. It is housed
in a new facility behind the City Hall and Community Building
located on Main St. Also in that area is the local post
office.
