A very proud member of the American Local History Network

 

Tennessee was formed in 1796 from North Carolina and Native American treaty lands. Tennessee grew from the lands of our fathers in the Cherokee and Chickasaw Indian Nations.

 

Our history is wide, varied and wonderfully interesting.  From pre-historic mound builders to modern day technology, Tennessee has it all. FromMemphis, Tennessee's Beale Steet Blues, Elvis Presley & Chickasaw State Park...From Nashville, the home of country music & state capitol, to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cherokee National Forest, Tennessee has something for everyone. Tennessee first saw white settlement in the very early 1780's...when it was still North Carolina.
