Fifth Solicitorial District

In 1817, the State Legislature divided the state into ten solicitorial districts, each with a solicitor-general, a forerunner of the modern-day office of District Attorney. The Fifth District was composed of Bledsoe, Warren, White, Overton, and Jackson counties. Thomas J. Campbell was appointed the first solicitor-general.Miller, Chas. A.
