History

Good Hope was platted in 1849, although a small village had already existed there for some time.[5] The community is said to derive its name from Good Hope, Pennsylvania, the native home of a share of the early settlers.[6] A post office was established at Good Hope in 1851, and remained in operation until 1965.[7]

It was only in 2012 that Good Hope had a waste treatment plant.[8]
