A Brief History of Hildreth |
|
| |
| German immigrants moved into
the Hildreth area around 1873. The railroad came
through the area in 1885, and served the area for many
years. It had a huge impact on the development of
Hildreth as a town. |

Carson Hildreth was a major
player in starting the town, and it was incorporated in
1886. In 1907, Hildreth reached a peak population
of 603. It now varies between 360 and 400 residents.
