History

Peter Decherd came to the area in 1831 from Franklin County, Virginia and set up a plantation in Winchester TN that came to be known as Hundred Oaks. In the 1850s he granted right-of-way to the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad from property he owned.

On February 14, 1856, the thirty-first General Assembly of the state of Tennessee incorporated the town of Decherd with all the rights and privileges as the town of Cookeville, which was also incorporated at that time.[1]

After the Civil War, Decherd was again incorporated as a town on January 30, 1868. It was unincorporated in 1885 to avoid application of the "Four Mile Law", which permitted liquor sales within four miles of schools located in incorporated communities. The town was chartered once again by the General Assembly on April 22, 1901.[2] The Haynes House in Decherd is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

A violent F4 tornado heavily damaged the northern part of the town on February 13, 1952.[3][4]

The historic Asia School is located in Decherd.
