You probably haven't taken Biology yet but an example of a hypothesis proven wrong was George Cuvier. He noticed that when examining fossils (sediment rock) and the layers of strata, that different species disappeared and appeared. He theorized that this was caused by catastrophism, the idea that there was basically a small local catastrophe which wiped out the population of species. He theorized that other species from different regions migrated to that area, and repopulated it.
This was proven wrong though. The real reason for this was natural selection and evolution, see Charles Darwin. Cuvier still provided a basis though for other scientists to provide their own theories.
Another good example is in psychology: Sigmund Freud. His theories on psychoanalysis were later proven wrong, but he still is regarded as an important contributor of psychology. Many psychologists were led to create new theories off of his.
