Unicoi County () is a county located in the U.S. state of Tennessee. As of the 2010 census, the
16_1
population was 18,313. Its county seat is Erwin. Unicoi is a Cherokee word meaning "white," "hazy,"
16_2
"fog-like," or "fog draped."
16_3
Unicoi County is part of the Johnson City Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is a component of
16_4
the Johnson City–Kingsport–Bristol, TN-VA Combined Statistical Area, commonly known as the
16_5
"Tri-Cities" region.
16_6
History
16_7
Unicoi County was created in 1875 from portions of Washington and Carter counties. Its first
16_8
settlers had arrived more than century earlier but the population had been small. The county
16_9
remained predominantly agrarian until the railroads were constructed in the area in the 1880s.
16_10
During the 1910s, the Clinchfield Railroad established a pottery in Erwin, which eventually
16_11
incorporated under the name, "Southern Potteries." This company produced a popular brand of
16_12
dishware, commonly called Blue Ridge China, which featured hand-painted underglaze designs. While
16_13
the company folded in the 1950s, Blue Ridge dishes remain popular with antique collectors.
16_14
In 1916, a circus elephant, Mary, was hanged in Erwin for killing her trainer. Hanging was chosen
16_15
as the method of execution since all available guns were believed inadequate for killing an
16_16
elephant. The hanging was the subject of a book, The Day They Hung the Elephant, by Charles Edwin
16_17
Price.

Unicoi County is situated entirely within the Blue Ridge Mountains, specifically the Bald Mountains
16_23

16_24
the highest mountain in the Balds, is also Unicoi County's high point. Traversed by the
16_25
Appalachian Trail, the mountain is topped by a grassy bald, allowing a 360-degree view of the
16_26
surrounding mountains.

War. Since its founding, it has supported the Republican presidential candidate in all but one
