History

In 1893, businessman W. H. Cole moved to Haywood County, North Carolina to establish a sawmill on unoccupied land. A community grew around his mill which he dubbed Hazelwood. It was incorporated as a town by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1905.Шаблон:Sfn

In 1976, an Annexation Feasibility Study estimated a population of 56 people in the study area. The study concluded that annexation would be economically feasible if the town developed its own municipal water supply.[2]

In 1982, a fire broke out at Benfield Industries, a bulk chemical mixing and packaging plant in Hazelwood and was referred to as "the day Hazelwood almost exploded".[3]

In July 1995, Hazelwood merged with the town of Waynesville due to the former's financial issues.[4][5]
