Bledsoe County was founded in 1807, from part of Roane and Indian Lands.
It was named in honor of Anthony Bledsoe. He was Captain of the Colonial Army from Virginia, a Major in the Revolutionary
Army and a Colonel of the Tennessee Militia. One of the first settlers of Sumner County, he was killed in 1788
near his home by Indians.
