History

Newell's Station Plaque Seymour, Tennessee
Newell’s Station Plaque Seymour, Tennessee

Seymour was originally the site of Newell’s Station, a frontier station established by early Sevier County pioneer Samuel Newell (1754–1841) in 1783. The first court of Sevier County, State of Franklin, was held at Newell’s Station in March 1785.

During the 19th century, the community was known as Trundles Crossroads where the main road from Sevierville forked, with one branch continuing northward to Knoxville and one branch westward to Maryville (now the intersection of Boyds Creek Highway and Old Sevierville Pike).

Upon completion of the Knoxville, Sevierville and Eastern Railway on December 18, 1909, the community’s station was named Seymour in honor of the line’s chief engineer, Charles Seymour. The Trundles Crossroads Post Office changed its name soon after to reflect the community’s new designation.

Historical Landmark

The Island View School, located on Boyd’s Creek Highway, is a wooden one room schoolhouse that operated between 1917 and 1949. It held between 35-40 students and covered eight grade levels. The teacher made $50 a month and wore multiple hats: educator, principal, and janitor. The school would shut down during crop season due to the students having to help their families.

The schoolhouse was restored by Dr. Sam Lyle and John Plummer. Lyle inherited the land from his grandfather. The schoolhouse holds sentimental value to Lyle due to his mother attending the school along with other family members. The family had been using the old schoolhouse to store hay until the building began to decay.
