Hagerman's Corners is a dispersed rural community in Markham, Ontario, Canada. It is geographically located between the communities of Milliken Mills and Unionville.
Hagerman's Corners was founded in 1803 by Nicholas Hagerman, who owned the property at the northwest corner of the intersection. By 1878 the village had a hotel (Bee Hive Hotel) and tavern, a general store and post office (1873), and a wagon maker. In 1849, a Wesleyan Methodist church was built on a private Hagerman family burying ground; the wood-frame church was replaced by a brick building in 1874. While the church was torn down in the 1920s, the cemetery on the east side of Kennedy Road (on James Fairless' farm), north of 14th Avenue remains with former Presbyterian church demolished. Hagerman Mennonite Church has met in the village since 1932.
