Brownsville Summary

Brownsville is a city located in Haywood County, Tennessee, United States. It is the county seat of Haywood County and is located in the western part of the state. The population of Brownsville was 10,292 at the 2010 census.

History

The area that is now Brownsville was first settled in 1823 by John and William Doak, two brothers from North Carolina. The Doaks named the settlement after their hometown of Brownsville, North Carolina. The town was officially incorporated in 1825 and was named the county seat of Haywood County in 1827.
In the early years of its existence, Brownsville was a small agricultural community. The town was home to several cotton plantations and was a major center for the production of cotton. The town also had a thriving lumber industry, with several sawmills located in the area.
In the late 19th century, Brownsville began to experience a period of growth and development. The town was connected to the rest of the state by the Memphis and Charleston Railroad in 1857. This allowed for the transportation of goods and people to and from the town. The railroad also helped to spur the growth of the town's economy.
In the early 20th century, Brownsville experienced a period of decline. The Great Depression of the 1930s caused many of the town's businesses to close and the population to decrease. The town was also affected by the decline of the cotton industry in the region.
In the late 20th century, Brownsville began to experience a period of revitalization. The town was designated as a Tennessee Main Street Community in 1989 and has since seen a resurgence in its economy. The town has also seen an increase in tourism due to its proximity to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
