 Lost Counties of Tennessee
Created in 1777 from the western areas of Burke and Wilkes Counties, North Carolina, Washington County had as a precursor a Washington District of 1775-76, which was the first political entity named for the Commander-in-Chief of American forces in the Revolution.

For most of these counties, however, the traditional ties of loyalty to a parent county were so strong that a majority of the qualified voters failed to approve the county's establishment.
