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.
The
city has the following
utilities:
1.
City Water
2.
Electric supplied by OG&E.
