Christmasville

First used as Post No. 2 by the 1785 surveyors, a town was later established on November 14, 1823, at John Christmas McLemore's Bluff on the South Fork of the Obion River. Goods were shipped down the river until 1854. Buckeye Point, 1 mile east, was an Indian campsite. The town spring furnished water for the inhabitants and a tanyard, and a post office operated here from 1827 to 1902.
