Land south of the Ohio River and north of the Kentucky-Tennessee border became the Jackson Purchase; land south of that line within Tennessee became the Western District. Earlier that year the first settler known to establish themselves within current Henderson County was Joseph Reed’s two sons Jack and William, who located on Beech River, about five miles east of the site that became Lexington, the county seat, about five years later. The Tennessee legislature passed an act to organize the Western District region into new counties November 7, 1821 (Acts of Tennessee 1821, p.39). Seventeen counties were created during the next few years to organize this section politically, three of which straddled the Tennessee River. Henderson County was one of these, chartered barely a week after the initial act and named in honor of Col. James Henderson, who had commanded Tennessee troops at the Battle of New Orleans. Until the independent organization became effective in early 1822, the Henderson County region was under the administration of Stewart County.
