| This page
contains the names of Hobbs, New Mexico businesses and their
locations. This information has been gathered from newspapers,
phone books, city directories, matchbooks and other sources. The "Date of Reference" indicates the date of the document where the information was collected from, such as from a 1954 telephone book or a 1945 newspaper. This date does NOT necessarily indicate an opening or closing date for the business. The "Associated Names" are names that were listed in advertisements as being associated with the business, either as the proprietor, manager, etc. In gathering this information, we sometimes came across conflicting street numbers, and have used our best judgement about which ones were correct. Street numbers on streets running east and west are assigned with the EVEN number on the NORTH side of the street and ODD numbers on the SOUTH side of the street. For streets that run north and south, EVEN numbers are on the EAST side of the street and ODD numbers are on the WEST side. |
