Discover Clarksville

Thomas Hutchins surveyed the area in 1768 and noted Red Paint Hill, a bluff where the Red River meets the Cumberland, as a landmark for boatmen. John Montgomery, for whom the county is named, and Kasper Mansker hunted there between 1771 and 1775. In March 1775 Judge Richard Henderson met more than 1,200 Cherokee at Sycamore Shoals, including Attakullakulla, Oconostota and Dragging Canoe, and in the Treaty of Sycamore Shoals bought 20 million acres between the Cumberland and Kentucky rivers. The purchase broke North Carolina and Virginia law and the Royal Proclamation of 1763.

More about Clarksville

In 1780, as John Donelson's flatboats passed Red Paint Hill on their way up the Cumberland to the settlement that became Nashville, Moses Renfroe, Joseph Renfroe and Solomon Turpin and their families branched off up the Red River and settled near Port Royal. The town was meant in part for Continental Army veterans, whom North Carolina, short of money, paid with western land grants. On January 16, 1784, John Armstrong filed notice with the North Carolina legislature to create the town of Clarksville, named for General George Rogers Clark. Lots were sold even before the town was official, and in October 1785 Colonel Robert Weakley laid out the town for Martin Armstrong and Colonel Montgomery. Sources Wikipedia: Clarksville, Tennessee
