Bill > HJR1265

This resolution, a formal expression of opinion by the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate, commemorates the 170th anniversary of the founding of Thompson's Station, a town in Williamson County. The resolution highlights that Thompson's Station officially took root and adopted its name in 1856, largely due to Dr. Elijah Thompson, who donated land for the town center and facilitated the arrival of the Tennessee & Alabama Railroad in 1855, which spurred growth and established the area as a vital agricultural shipping point. The resolution acknowledges the town's historical significance as a trade center and its citizens' contributions to the strength and character of Tennessee, extending congratulations and best wishes for future success.
