History Notes for Janet "Jesse" Smith
Hagersville was established in the early days of the county when David Hager built a hotel here. Hagerville for many years was merely a stopping place for the daily stage between Port Dover and Hamilton. In 1870, the Canada Southern Railway was built and a year or so later the Hamilton and Lake Erie Railways, causing this small village to grow rapidly. The houses were built along the southern boundary of the Indian Reservation of Oneida, because this land could not be sold. In 1875, Hagersville was incorporated as a police village.
