HistoryThe Hurley post office was established in 1893.[1] The community was probably named for Samuel Robert Hurley, a pioneer settler.[2] Hurley suffered devastating floods in 2002 which nearly wiped out the town.[3] The recovery efforts resulted in an FBI and IRS investigation into alleged corruption surrounding the use of government funds.[4] Schools
