Jefferson County is located in the eastern part of the great state of Tennessee, USA. It was established in 1792, making it one of the county's older political subdivisions. The county was named after Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States who played a significant role in the early development of the country as one of the Founding Fathers.

The county seat, Dandridge, was settled in 1783 by Revolutionary War veterans and is now considered the second oldest town in Tennessee. In addition to its history, the region is known for its picturesque landscapes, including the French Broad River and Douglas Lake, which provide numerous recreational opportunities, such as boating, fishing, and hiking.

A fun fact about Jefferson County is that the historic Town of Dandridge, situated near the French Broad River, was nearly flooded by the construction of the Douglas Dam in the mid-1940s. The citizens of Dandridge banded together and lobbied to build a dike around the downtown area to protect its historic structures. The dike was successfully completed, saving important historic sites like the old Jefferson County Courthouse, which is now a local history museum.
