Gallatin is a city in and the county seat of Sumner County, Tennessee.[4] The population was 30,278 at the 2010 census and 44,431 at the 2020 census.[5] Named for United States Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin, the city was established on the Cumberland River and made the county seat of Sumner County in 1802. It is located about 30.6 miles northeast of the state capital of Nashville, Tennessee.
Several national companies have facilities or headquarters in Gallatin, including Gap, Inc., RR Donnelley, Beretta and Servpro Industries, Inc. Gallatin was formerly the headquarters of Dot Records. The city is also the site of Volunteer State Community College, a two-year college with more than 70 degree programs. In 2017, Gallatin was ranked as "The Nicest Place In America" by Reader's Digest.[6]
History[]
Gallatin was established in 1802 as the permanent county seat of Sumner County, in what is called the Middle Tennessee region of the state. The town was named after Albert Gallatin,[7] Secretary of Treasury to Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. Andrew Jackson became one of the first to purchase a lot when the town was surveyed and platted in 1803. The town was built around a traditional plan of an open square.[8][citation needed] Jackson founded the first general store in Gallatin.[9]
In 1803, the first county courthouse and jail were built on the central town square. In 1815, the town was incorporated. In the mid-20th century, it operated under a charter established by a 1953 Private Act of the State Legislature.
During the secession crisis just before the American Civil War, the citizens of Gallatin hoped to remain neutral; they were opposed to secession from the Union. Once the fighting began, however, they gave almost unanimous support to the Confederacy and volunteered to serve in defense of their state.
The Union Army captured Gallatin in February 1862, following Ulysses S. Grant's capture of Fort Donelson. Gallatin was strategic both because of the railroad that connected the town to other cities and its location on the Cumberland River, both of which the Union Army sought to control. In July 1862, General John Hunt Morgan recaptured Gallatin and held it until the Confederate forces fell back to Chattanooga in October.
In November 1862, Union General Eleazar A. Paine retook the town, and Union troops occupied it throughout the remainder of the war. Paine was notoriously cruel and was replaced in command before the end of the war because of his behavior. Alice Williamson, a 16-year-old girl, kept a diary during this time and described Paine's execution of alleged spies in the town square.[10] The long occupation disrupted civil society in the region.[11]
Following the Emancipation Proclamation in January 1863, many enslaved African Americans left plantations with their families to join the Union troops. They established a "contraband camp" at Gallatin. The slaves were provided food and housing, and put to work. Schools were set up in the camp so that both adults and children could learn to read and write.[12]
The long enemy occupation drained the area of resources. Union troops lived off the land, confiscating livestock and crops from local farms. By the end of the war, widespread social and economic breakdown and dislocation existed in the area, accompanied by a rise in crime. Occupation forces of the Union Army remained in Gallatin for some time after the war, still living off the land.[11]
In the aftermath of the war, many freedmen moved from the farms into town, to gather in black communities away from white oversight. At the same time, many white residents moved from town out to farms to avoid the occupying troops. The area took many years to recover from the disruption of the war years. Its continued reliance on agriculture slowed the economy, and planters and other employers struggled with the shift to a free labor system.[11]
In summer 1873, Gallatin was devastated by an epidemic of cholera, which was worldwide. It started in the United States with cases in New Orleans in February and spread along the Mississippi River valley and its tributaries, contaminating water supplies. In the single month of June, 68 people died in the small town of Gallatin, including many children.[13] The epidemic swept through the South, with the disease brought by immigrants arriving in New Orleans, and spread by passengers traveling in the region by steamboat and rail. The poor sanitation of the period resulted in contamination of water sources. Sumner County had an estimated 120 deaths that year from cholera, with four-fifths of them suffered by African Americans.[14] A congressional report on the disease published in 1874 said that it had been documented in 264 towns and 18 states.[14]
Nashville had 603 fatal cases from June 7 to 29, with 72 people dying on the day of highest fatalities.[15]
Gradually through the late 19th century, Gallatin and its surroundings regained some steady growth. The area was primarily agricultural until the middle of the 20th century.
By 1970, industrialization and urbanization had resulted in half the county population being considered urban (including suburbs). In 1992, Gallatin was surpassed by Hendersonville as the largest city in the county, though the former remains the county seat. Today, it serves in part as a bedroom commuter suburb to the larger city and state capital of Nashville, some 30 miles to the southwest.
On April 7, 2006, a tornado struck the city, killing nine people and injuring 150. Volunteer State Community College sustained major damage. This tornado was part of the April 6–8, 2006 Tornado Outbreak.
