History Of HydttstOUn

Samuel Soper was the pioneer
schoolteacher and taught his first
scholars in the old Methodist
Church. The first public school
was built in 1881, about $50 feet
from the highway, in low, level,
rather marshy piece of land which
caused it to be nicknamed
Swamp College" Swamp Col
lege" was frame structure of
one room. The enrolment at that
time was 60 to 20 pupils in the
winter Eight grades were taught.
One of the first teachers was
named Thomas Hill. Two of the
earliest pupils were Grafton
Gardner and A. T. Gabler. After

ferent members until the erection
of their church in 1845. The first
church stood upon the cemetery
lot on the outskirts. of town. In
1871, under the pastorship of the
Rev. Alfred N. Gilbert, the
present church was built inside
the town on lot donated by Mr..
and Mrs. Jacob B. Thomas, OF
Baltimore. Among the founders
of the church were Eli Wolfe,
William Richards, Sarah Hyatt,
and Sarah A. Price.
Henry Poole was the first store
keeper of Hyattstown and was
succeeded by Warner Welsh.
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1946-03-14

HyattstOwn not only deals with
the history Of the Revolutionary
period but also takes its place as
a modern town. Its modern fully
equipped fire department, built in
1871 bears evidence to this. Start
ing in 1923, as department with
one engine, the Hyattstown Fire
Department now has three en-
gines, an ambulance, and a new
fire building.
When building materials are
again available, it is expected that
many new homes and other build
ings will take their place beside
the historic homes of the past.

BY JEAN ANDERSON

About 175 years ago, a small
town 16 miles north of Rockville
was founded. This little town,
nestled picturesquely in the foot
hills of Sugar Loaf mountain, was
called Hyattstown, named for it's
founder, Jesse Hyatt. The vicinity
of the village was the scene of
phases of both the Revolutionary
and the Civil wars.
The first house was erected in
1900 by F. Poole. By 1911 the
village comprised twelve houses,
church, a blacksmith shop, and
p hotel.
