History of Cedar Hill Tennessee
Cedar Hill Tennessee exists in Robertson County's northwest corner where farmers and dedicated workers built a quiet history of development. Located approximately 30 miles north of Nashville this tranquil area serves as an essential agricultural center in the region since the 19th century.
Where It All Began
Cedar Hill received its name from the cedar trees which grew in abundance across the rolling hills throughout this region. During the early 1800s a rural farming settlement grew into one of numerous small towns which established the basis of Middle Tennessee.
Tobacco production flourished in Cedar Hill during the mid-1800s because of the strong tobacco industry in the region. The tobacco production in Robertson County reached national leadership during that period and Cedar Hill farmers maintained a prominent role in this achievement. The local economy experienced a long period of growth through this valuable crop which became the foundation of daily activities across many families.
The Railroad Changed Everything
The Louisville & Nashville (L&N) Railroad establishment in the late 1800s led Cedar Hill to rapid development. Tobacco along with livestock and other products transported through the town reached their destinations in Nashville and additional markets. People traveling by rail chose the town as their transportation center which made it a major activity center during that time.
During that era Cedar Hill maintained a downtown section containing stores hotels and a bank and multiple other businesses. The railroad expansion brought employment opportunities together with population growth which enabled the town to experience a period of development. During a specific period the town operated as one of the main stops on the L&N railroad line.
Life Slowed Down, But Never Stopped
The first half of the 1900s brought changes to this town which paralleled transformations across other communities. The rise of automobiles together with changing agricultural practices resulted in a decrease of active community life. The commercial activity moved to larger towns in the area while rail traffic gradually decreased. The town of Cedar Hill maintained its stability despite the decline of commercial activities.
The town maintains a small population of less than 300 residents but its quiet nature and friendly atmosphere make it appealing to visitors. The area remains home to numerous families who have lived there through generations while its countryside preserves some of the finest agricultural land in Middle Tennessee.
