Population: 2,034 Located in Licking County
Hebron, the sixth town laid out in Licking County, is located on Route #40, the "Old National Trail" an extension, in 1834, of the historic Zane Trace.
Laid out in 1827 by John Smith, it became an important link in the Ohio Canal System. This sometimes raucous canal town, with it's tanneries, sawmills, warehouses and distilleries was for a time a busy market place, and was known to pioneers of the day as a center of agriculture and industry. It became in reality "Hebron?Historic Crossroads of Ohio", today's slogan for the Village of Hebron.
Now Hebron, in the last quarter of the twentieth century, is well on the way to a secure future with several large firms within Hebron, and a population of approximately 2000. Strategic location, adequate water and sewer services, churches, schools, library, banking and shopping facilities, are all proving attractive to large corporate occupants of the Newark Industrial and Mid-Ohio Parks to the north. Access to Interstate 70, the arterial freeway destined to carry traffic coast to coast, "without a traffic light" is another major locational asset.
Our country's Bicentennial year brought the development of Canal Park in the center of the village, and the voters approval of a maintenance levy for the park area and the Hebron Public Library. Development of the park complex has been completed with two lighted ball fields, picnic shelters, a gazebo and a playground.
Active organizations in Hebron include the Mutual and Civic Improvement Club, the Hebron Business Association, the Lion's Club, the American Legion and Auxiliary, Boy & Girl Scouts, 4-H Clubs, Masonic Lodge, and Fifty Five Club for senior citizens.
The Village of Hebron also keeps an active membership with the Buckeye Lake Chamber of Commerce as well as the Licking County Chamber of Commerce.
