3 miles west, this town, first called Harris' Bluff, later Harrisburg, was the first to be incorporated (Oct. 18, 1821) in west Tennessee. In 1833, the electors for the surrounding four counties delivered their returns here. Industries included a grist mill, tailor shop and toll bridge. A prehistoric mound is at the site.
