  • Settlement and 1796 Constitution • the Area That Became Tennessee
    ••••••••••••TENNESSEE CONSTITUTIONAL HISTORY Settlement and 1796 Constitution • The area that became Tennessee was part of the 1663 land grant of North Carolina from Charles II. • In violation of the British Proclamation of 1763 prohibiting settlements west of the Appalachian Mountains, the Watauga settlement was founded in 1771. (T. R's "Great Leap Westward" He wrote that Robertson and Sevier were two of the three greatest leaders in the development west of the mountains, the third being George Rogers Clark) The Watauga Association adopted articles to govern their settlement in 1772—this was the first government west of the mountains. The last British Governor of Virginia, the Earl of Dunmore, wrote in 1774 that Watauga was "a dangerous example to the people of America of forming governments distinct from and independent of his majesty's authority." In 1775, Richard Henderson purchased a large area of Kentucky and Middle Tennessee from the Cherokees--20 million acres for 6 wagon loads of goods. The governments of Virginia and North Carolina refused to recognize it. It was Henderson who was behind the settlement of Nashville in 1779-80. James Robertson led most of the men and the livestock over land to the settlement. John Donelson led a flotilla by water, down the Tennessee River to the Ohio, up the Ohio to the Cumberland, and up the Cumberland to the settlement. The Cumberland Compact was signed in 1780. It provided for the government of the settlement. · After being ignored by North Carolina for many years, the eastern settlements attempt to form the state of Franklin in 1784.

  • A Student's Guide to the Tennessee
    The MembersA of theStudent’s Senate Guide to the Tennessee Senate 2013 Edition Welcome to the Tennessee Senate. Thank you for your interest in your government. My name is Ron Ramsey. I am the Lieutenant Governor of Tennessee. I have this job because a majority of my fellow senators voted for me to be their leader, or “Speaker.” Unlike many other states, Tennessee’s Lieutenant Governor is also head of its Senate. My duties as both Speaker of the Senate and Lieutenant Governor keep me very busy. However, because I am a state Senator, my job is officially part-time. Having a part-time legislature is good because it allows elected officials to spend time living and working under the laws they make and with the people they represent. When the legislature is not in session I run a real estate and auction business with my wife, Sindy, in my hometown of Blountville, which is right on the border between Virginia and Tennessee. It is a wonderful town and I am glad to be able to spend time there when the legislature is not in session. If you visit the Capitol on a day when the legislature is in session, you will see me presiding over the Senate. I have a gavel, and I do my best to keep Senate sessions moving along quickly and efficiently so my members can get back home to their families and businesses. I also make all of the Senate’s committee assignments. Much of the Senate’s work goes on in committees so it is important to have the right people working on the right issues.
