An old map of what used to be James County
JAMES


James County, Tennessee, is located…. well, nowhere. It used to be between Hamilton and Bradley Counties in southeast Tennessee, and Ooltewah was its county seat. But in 1919 the county went bankrupt, which means that the county government didn’t have enough money to pay its bills. A few months later, James County’s citizens voted to become a part of Hamilton County. Today James County is known as the “Lost County of Tennessee.”
