Hobson City is a town in Calhoun County, Alabama, United States. At the 2020 census, the population was 759. It is included in the Anniston-Oxford Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Hobson City was Alabama’s first self-governed all-black municipality.
According to Town Hall records, much of the Place now included in the corporate limits of Hobson City was with within the adjoining city of Oxford, Alabama. During the late 19th century, the area was known as “Mooree Quarter”. The black vote from that Place was a controlling factor during municipal elections. An account provided by an ahead of time settler of the community has been passed down through the years. In that account, a black person was elected as the Oxford justice of the peace. As a result, and in keeping considering campaign promises, Mayor Whitehead of Oxford went to the let in capitol and had the corporate boundaries of Oxford redrawn to exclude Mooree Quarter and the black vote.
The town was incorporated upon August 16, 1899. Records from a contemporary Alabama newspaper, The Peoples’ Journal, described the municipality as “the by yourself municipality controlled and governed unquestionably by colored people anywhere in the United States.” The newspaper additional commented, “The summative country will doubtless be interested in the repercussion of this experiment.” Under the leadership of the first mayor, S. L. Davis, and the first police chief, James Duran, police support was restored to the area. The town was named after Richmond P. Hobson, a white naval hero in the then-recent Spanish-American War and aficionado of Congress. Newman O’Neal was the mayor in 1919 until he faced death threats and was assaulted by the Ku Klux Klan forcing him to run away the city. The mayor in 1970, J. R. Striplin, was its thirteenth black mayor in succession. The town recently had buildings placed on the National Register of Historic Places and is currently in the process of qualifying further buildings as well. During November 2008, Alberta C. McCrory was sworn in as the 2008–2012 mayor.
