Hamblen County Genealogy and History Volunteers Dedicated to Free Genealogy This county is available for adoption. We're looking for folks who share our desire to put data online and are interested in helping this project be as successful as we can make it. If you are interested joining our group as County Host for this website, or any of our websites, view our Volunteer Information page and Email Kim. A desire to transcribe data and know-how to make a basic webpage is required. In the meantime, we'd be very happy to accept any data you'd care to contribute and would like to see displayed on this site. We're looking for "raw data" - the birth/death/marriage records, obituaries, cemetery headstone readings, biographies, county histories, census data, pensions and other military data. In short, we'd like to display all the items you used to put together your family tree (rather than the tree itself). Email your transcribed data to us and we'll take care of putting it online. Hamblen County was founded in 1870. It was named in honor of Hezekiah Hamblen of Hawkins County, who was born in Prince Edward County, Virginia. From his arrival in the area in 1788, he served as a surveyor & magistrate until his death in 1855.
