A post office operated at Hardy from 1902 to 1915.[2] The name honors R.A. Hardy, who owned a wharf nearby.[2] The mill at Hardy Creek was part of the Cottoneva Lumber Company's operation at Rockport. The mill had its own wharf and railroad, and was operated by an E. T. Dusenbury. The town of Hardy also had a large hotel. The mill was ultimately destroyed in a fire and was never rebuilt.[4]
