8-2-1801:  Inhabitants of Montgomery County submit a plan for dividing the county so as to leave Clarksville as the "County Town."

The town "was supported and kept up in the time of the Indian war by the persevereing zeal of Sundry of your Petitioners as a post so importnat to the whole Cumberland Settlement; by which several of them suffered Injuries in their Families and loss of property. . .  "   Signed by Geo.
