Thomas Scharf\u2019s\u2019 1881 <em>History of Baltimore City and County, Maryland<\/em> notes on page 870 the following detail about the <strong>sixth district<\/strong>, which is in the northwestern corner of Baltimore County; adjacent to the Pennsylvania state line:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>On the falls of the Gunpowder are located the largest paper-mills in the State.\u00a0 At the Paper Mills Post-Office William H.

Hoffman was a third generation Hoffman paper maker in this area.\u00a0 Paper Mills Post-Office becomes Hoffmanville in 1883; as it is currently listed on maps just south of the northwestern extremities of the Prettyboy Reservoir.\u00a0 <strong>Jacob Loucks ends his Maryland Paper Making stint at a Hoffmanville paper mill in partnership with William H. Hoffman.<\/strong>\u00a0 That paper mill site is unfortunately under water as part of Prettyboy Reservoir.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>HOFFMANSVILLE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hoffmansville is a more obscure settlement; however it was of greater interest to me, because Jacob Loucks first son, George W. S. Loucks was born Sept. 29, 1856, at Hoffmansville.<\/p>\n<p>Hoffmansville was located in the <strong>eighth district<\/strong>, of Baltimore County; it no longer appears on maps primarily because all buildings were removed when Loch Raven Reservoir was constructed.<\/p>\n<p>Hoffmansville also owes its name to the first family of paper making in Maryland.\u00a0 In 1850 John Hunter constructed a large paper mill where the present Paper Mill Road Bridge crosses Loch Raven Reservoir, just east of Hunt Valley, Maryland.\u00a0 Almost immediately, William H. Hoffman acquired Hunter\u2019s paper mill; at that time along The Great Gunpowder Falls.<\/p>\n<p>The mill was known as the Marble Vale Paper Mill.\u00a0 <strong>A 1851-52 Baltimore County mercantile directory indicates the paper mill is co-owned by Mathews &amp; Hoffman.<\/strong>\u00a0 As the paper mill and group of houses grew near the Paper Mill Covered Bridge over the Gunpowder at that location, the settlement took on the name Hoffmansville.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jacob Loucks begins his Maryland Paper Making stint at this paper mill; initially learning the paper making trade and rising to foreman of this paper mill<\/strong> (Reference: <em>From Pig Iron to Cotton Duck<\/em>, page 270).\u00a0 It is doubtful if Jacob Loucks ever was a co-owner of this mill; the 1865 Simon J.
