Hawthorne was founded by B.L. Harding and H.D. Lombard who, in fact, began developing the city in 1905 by purchasing land and creating the Hawthorne Improvement Company. The city’s name was chosen by Harding’s daughter who shared her birthday with author Nathaniel Hawthorne. By 1908, a school was started in a small building that served as both a church and a school. This school had about 16 persons starting from kindergarten ages to 18 years old. One of the first businesses started was a small grocery store on Hawthorne Blvd. Meat was delivered by wagon three times a week. The first police department was created in 1922, consisting of four officers total.
