Putnam County is located in the great state of Tennessee, United States, and was established on February 2, 1854. The county was named in honor of General Israel Putnam, an American Revolutionary War hero, well-known for his bravery and leadership. The county seat, Cookeville, is situated right in the heart of the region, which is also known as the Upper Cumberland area of Tennessee.

Before its establishment, the land that makes up Putnam County was inhabited by Native American tribes, mainly the Cherokee. European settlers began to arrive in the late 18th century, attracted by the fertile land and rivers, with agriculture becoming a primary economic activity. In the 19th century, the arrival of railroads accelerated the development and growth of the region.

Over time, Putnam County has become an important center for education and commerce in the region. Tennessee Technological University, founded in 1915, is located in the county seat, Cookeville, and has contributed to the county's growth and economic stability.

As for a fun fact, Putnam County hosts the annual "World's Largest Fish Fry" in Paris, Tennessee. This event features a fish fry, a parade, and multiple other activities. The fish fry captures the spirit and culture of the region, bringing together its residents and visitors to celebrate and enjoy delicious food and entertainment.
