Just south of 5 points in historic downtown Franklin, TN sets Franklin’s first subdivision Hincheyville. The subdivision was developed in early 1819 by Felix Grundy, James Irwin, and James Trimble. The ninety acres, extending from Fair Street to Eleventh Avenue had 26 lots on Fair Street, 25 lots on Main Street and 8 lots on Bridge Street. The subdivision was named for Hinchea Petway who was a wealthy merchant who owned the land. His house, which had to be razed to build the subdivision, was located approximately in the middle of 8th Ave between Fair Street and West Main. The Hincheyville subdivision was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

Michael, love the show! There just aren't enough hours in the day sometimes, but you seem to find them.
Neat history on Franklin. I was in Franklin back in 2001 visiting one of the stores i was responsible for. It was RSC (Rental Service Corporation). I have no idea what street it was located on. I only visited it once.
