History in
a Pecan Shell
In
the mid 1920s, the Syndicate Hotel was built as lodging for prospective
land buyers. Originally located some 10 miles east of Hub, it failed
with the arrival of the Great Depression and was bought and moved
to Hub, where it became the community’s most impressive structure.
Little has been recorded of Hub’s history, but the town was substantial
enough to once support a grain elevator and not one but two cotton
gins.
Hub still appears on the Parmer
County maps as a crossroads community but does not show a cemetery. |
