Hardeeville

 

The Hardeeville economy is growing, and you can get in on the ground floor. Projects like the scheduled Jasper Ocean Terminal seek to spark an economic boom for the region in the very near future. One can only imagine the potential presented when moving into a city early before it balloons. Not only that, but you can become a part of Hardeeville’s history as it takes its first steps into the future. Perhaps if not you, then certainly the next generations of your family. The city has a lot of potential.

 

Before you help forge ahead, writing history, it’s always important to learn about the history that came before. The city was officially established in 1911. However, Indigenous Americans originally called the region home before the Swiss Huguenots moved in for around a decade. Later, White William Hardee established the Hardee’s Station railway, which ran along the same track as the CSX railroad of today. Hardee’s railroad proved a significant influence on the region and was later dubbed “Hardeeville,” which is where the city derives its name. For those who are still curious to learn more, museums like the local Heyward House Museum can help to better illustrate the region’s timeline in further detail.
