About Hendersonville, Tennessee
In the 1780s the territory of North Carolina west of the Allegheny Mountains was gripped in what Thomas P. Abernethy has called
"the great land grab"--the rush by well-heeled and self-interested men, both in government and out, to acquire North Carolina's military lands and
register their titles in the newly-created counties of the region. The great object and desire of all of these men was for rich, fertile, well-watered
and easily-worked land suitable for plantations, a temptation that Daniel Smith, James Sanders, William Henderson, Thomas Masten, and many others who
haled from Virginia and eastern North Carolina Creek gave in to. Hendersonville
was born of these needs and desires.
The modern history of Hendersonville begins after World War II, when the confluence of three factors--the town's proximity to Nashville, the improvements
to Gallatin Road, the main road between Hendersonville and Nashville, and the impoundment of Old Hickory Lake--kicked off a second great land grab. A
delightful life in the suburbs along the lake was just minutes away by automobile from Nashville, where the jobs were. It is almost impossible to imagine
what Hendersonville would be like today if the lake had not been created.
