Hubbard is a city in Trumbull County in the state of Ohio in the United States . The population was 8,284 at the 2000 census .
history
The city is named after the merchant Nehemiah Hubbard Jr. from Middletown , Connecticut , who in 1795 acquired land from the Connecticut Western Reserve that was later called Hubbard Township. Nehemiah Hubbard sold the first property to Samuel Tylee, a Connecticut land surveyor who helped him measure the land and sell it to other settlers.
Until 1861, Hubbard was nothing more than an intersection of two country roads with a few houses. However, when the coal deposits were discovered in the area, the small settlement quickly became an independent municipality. By 1868, Hubbard had reached enough residents to be recognized as a separate municipality within the township.
