About Jonesborough, Tennessee
Jonesborough is a town of 5,860 people and the seat of Washington County, in the far northeast corner of Tennessee. North Carolina still governed this land when it chartered the town in 1779, and the streets were laid out the following year, in 1780. The name honored Willie Jones of Halifax, North Carolina, a lawmaker who backed the settlers pushing west over the Appalachians.
In August 1784 frontier leaders met here to organize the State of Franklin, and Jonesborough became its capital. Congress never recognized Franklin, and North Carolina took the region back in late 1788. Jonesborough was incorporated in 1815, and it still carries the title of Tennessee's oldest town.
- An abolitionist paper in 1819Elihu Embree of Jonesborough started the Manumission Intelligencier in 1819 and gave it a new name, The Emancipator, a year later. It was the first periodical in America devoted only to ending slavery, and it made the town known as a center of the abolition cause.
- Andrew Jackson's stay in 1788The future president crossed the mountains in 1788 and practiced law in Jonesborough for several months while he waited for a caravan heading to Nashville. He boarded in the log house of Major Christopher Taylor, built in 1777 about a mile from town. In 1974 the cabin was taken apart and rebuilt in a town park, and a local legend says Jackson's ghost still appears near it.
- Two editors brawl in 1840William G. "Parson" Brownlow moved his newspaper, the Jonesborough Whig, here from Elizabethton. In May 1840 he and a rival editor, the Methodist preacher Landon Carter Haynes, fought each other on the town's streets. For years afterward they attacked each other in print and spoiled each other's political plans. Haynes quit newspapers in 1845, and Brownlow, later elected governor, took the Whig to Knoxville in 1849.
- The cholera summer of 1873Cholera reached Jonesborough on July 14, 1873, when Mrs. A. C. Collins died after nursing two refugees from Greeneville. Many residents had already fled. Of about 75 people who stayed, 30 died by early August and 30 more fell sick and lived. The dead included publisher Col. George Gresham, who had cared for the sick, and the minister G.C. Thrasher. Help and money came from other towns, the disease faded within a month, and residents returned.
- Storytelling every OctoberEvery October, over the month's first full weekend, the International Storytelling Center sets up big tents in the town's parks for the National Storytelling Festival, and storytellers take the stages before crowds from around the world. The festival grew from the Appalachian love of storytelling, has run for more than 35 years, and led East Tennessee State University to start a graduate program in storytelling. Now and then a passing Norfolk Southern train pauses a story.
