Hope Hull, about nine miles southwest of Montgomery, began as a stop on the Mobile and Montgomery Railroad called McGehee's Switch, for local planter Abner W. McGehee. McGehee, born February 17, 1779, in Prince Edward County, Virginia, was the nephew of John Scott, founder of Alabama Town, which became part of Montgomery in 1819. He moved from Georgia's Broad River country after the 1814 Treaty of Fort Jackson and bought a huge plantation here.
A prosperous planter and businessman, McGehee built the Planter's Hotel on Montgomery's Court Square in 1833, promoted the Montgomery and West Point Railroad, one of the state's first, begun in 1836, and in 1830 hired ironmonger Daniel Hillman to build a forge at what became Tannehill, a start of Alabama's iron industry. A devout Methodist, he founded the Alabama Bible Society in 1851, and he renamed the community for Hope Hull, a Methodist circuit rider who had brought his family into the church in Georgia. He died on February 19, 1855, and is buried here. The post office was called McGehee's from 1875 until it became Hope Hull in 1877. The Tankersley Rosenwald School, built near Hope Hull in 1923, was one of 14 schools for Black children in Montgomery County built with help from the Julius Rosenwald Fund.
