Malone August, 1963: "Formerly, the 318 square miles now known as Jefferson County were included in those of Greene County. In 1783 the first settlers came to Jefferson County, and these included the following men and their families: Robert McFarland, Alexander Outlaw, Thomas Jarnigin, James Hill, Wesley White, James Randolph, Joseph Copeland, Robert Gentry, and James Hubbard. The first two men mentioned located in the area known now as Hamblen County. The last seven settled in what is now called Sevier County. About four miles above the mouth of the Chucky River and on the north side was the site chosen by Captain Jarnigin for his homestead. James Hill lived about a mile below Captain Jarnigin, and Wesley White settled immediately opposite Taylor's Bend. Robert Gentry located four miles above Dandridge, and Joseph Copeland seven miles above Dandridge on the south side of the French Broad River. After this period of settling during 1783, the population grew rapidly. "Some very important events occurred during the decade following the year 1783. In 1785 the Franklin government divided the area then known as Greene into three distinct and separate counties. One of the new counties formed by this division was Caswell, which included the area now known as Jefferson and Sevier counties. Jefferson and Knox counties were created on June 11, 1792, by Governor Blount. During the following year he had these counties formed into the Hamilton Judicial District. Sevier County was created in 1794 by dividing Jefferson County, and in 1797 the county was divided again, a part of it becoming Cocke County.7 The remaining area of 318 square miles is the present Jefferson County." More information is available from the document on Jefferson County currently saved in MY DOCUMENTS. "The formation of the judicial system in Jefferson County was not long in coming. In just one year, one month, and eleven days following the formation of Jefferson County, the first Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions of Jefferson County Court met at the home of Jeremiah Matthews, about four or five miles west of Dandridge, and north of the French Broad near the river. This meeting took place on July 22, 1793. A short time later Dandridge became the county seat. Today, more than 169 years later, Dandridge remains the seat of justice in the county. In 1810 the Circuit Court was organized, and about a quarter of a century later the Chancery Court. Law and order were held in a sort of sacred trust, and the religious duties of individuals and communities were given, perhaps, greater emphasis than before.9 "By 1810 churches were organized in all parts of the county, and religious services were held in homes whenever buildings for worship were not available.10 Religion and education have been vital influences in the lives and activities of the people since its beginning. The oldest church in the county is the Hopewell Presbyterian Church in Dandridge. It was organized in 1785, eight years before the town was established. The people are practically all Protestants, largely Baptist, Presbyterian, and Methodist. "Education has been a major concern of the people since before the organization of the county. Efforts to establish outstanding educational facilities were made in various communities.11 After the church buildings were erected, somewhat later came the construction of various schools. During the beginning of the educational system in the county, both public and private schools flourished. The first academy was located in a log house at Dandridge. The trustees were appointed in 1806, and the academy was opened in 1818. A brick building was erected later, and the academy became a co-educational institution." FROM: Search - "In spite of the dangers to his family and neighbors, Bryce Russell stayed on as one of the earliest citizens of Tennessee. North Carolina Warrant 1521, 1790, awarded a land grant of 150 acres in Tennessee to Brice Russell. The land was in Sullivan County on the north side of the Holston. Sullivan County Deed Book 1, p. 50 (reprinted in Watauga Association Vol. 1, no. 2 (1972), p. 40) states that on October 23, 1782, Bryce Russell received Land Grant 110 of 640 acres on the north side of the Holston beginning at Joseph Copeland's line, adjacent to land of James Byth (Blythe?), and cornered by Joseph Rogers's land."
