History - William Nolen, along with his wife Sarah and five children, were traveling through middle Tennessee, in 1797, when his wagon broke down causing the family to delay traveling until the wagon was repaired.  After inspecting the local terrain, William Nolen noted the area had an abundance of game and clean creek water.  These resources convinced him and his family that they needed to travel no further.  He and his family built their log cabin home and farm in the area now called Nolensville, Tennessee.

The first town lots were sold to George Barnes in 1819, 1/2 acres for $55.  Nolensville's Plan of Incorporation passed the Tennessee senate on January 22, 1838.  The plan specified corporate limits as well as identifying 23 numbered lots and 3 unnumbered lots with owners names associated with each lot. On March 19, 1845 the Charter for Incorporation was drawn up for Nolensville Academy to confer degrees or certificates of proficiency.

On March 19, 1875 a charter was passed by the General Assembly for Nolensville Male and Female Academy.  A road well traveled....Nolensville Road was also known as Fishing Ford Road, Perkins Pike, Nolensville Turnpike, Horton Highway, and US 31A-41A.  Toll gates were operated about every 3 miles until the county and state took over the road.

The stagecoach ran from Chapel Hill to Nashville, changing horses in Nolensville, until it was discontinued in 1910.  Bargo Brittain operated a 'jitney' service and carried mail from Nashville to Nolensville. The paved road through Nolensville began construction in 1927 with the bridges between Nolensville and Triune being built in 1932.

The Historic Nolensville "Feedmill" originally owned and operated by the Jordan family, the mill was bought and moved to Nolensville in 1890 by a group of stock holders.  Dr. David Rice Gooch, among the original stockholders, later purchased half of the stock in the mill company (a 50 barrel flour mill with a 48-inch grinding stone).  In 1916, S. C. Battle purchased the remaining stock to become partners with Dr. Gooch.  In 1920, Owen Allen Gooch, son of Dr. David Rice Gooch, bought S. C. Battle's share to become half owner. 

On October 2, 1932, Owen Allen Gooch bought the remaining shared from his father to become sole proprietor. The original mill burned in 1933 and was rebuilt with the intentions of producing flour, but with the demand for flour decreasing, the mill was primarily used for manufacturing feed. Some of the areas themed events include carnivals, festivals, arts & crafts shows, parades and outdoor concerts. If you are considering a move to the greater Nashville area, look no further than this wonderful city in the rolling hills of Tennessee.
