History of Meigs County, TN
Before 1819, the area that is now Meigs County was Cherokee territory. White settlers established ferries to cross the Tennessee River from Rhea County as early as 1807. Col. Return J. Meigs , who was to become the county's namesake, operated an Indian agency across the river in Rhea County until 1817, when the agency moved east to the area that is now Meigs County. In 1819 the Hiwassee Treaty opened the land to white settlement, initially as a part of Rhea County. In 1985, the Meigs County Family and Community Education Club began a large quilt to commemorate the early history of Meigs County, for a state project, the Tennessee “Homecoming 1986." The quilt includes images of fourteen sites representing the early history of Meigs County. The central quilt design, including a map of the area to locate the various sites represented, was created by the late Flossie Bennett, a longtime leader of the FCE. A committee of representatives from Ten Mile, Peakland, Concord, Goodfield, and Decatur, decided which sites would be included in the quilt.
