Name Variations for Hibbs Hole ...When searching records, keep in mind that names and their spelling can change over time. Our sources include documents like maps, railroad schedules, Travel, Express and Shipping Guides. Many of these documents date from the 1800's and it's common to find spelling differences.

While the name of this community is Hibbs Hole, be aware that it's the common practice of mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names<2>.
