Former counties
There are two former counties in Tennessee:
 James County (1870–1919) - Now part of Hamilton County. The county seat was Ooltewah. 
 Tennessee County (1788–1796) - When Tennessee achieved statehood, the previous Tennessee County in North Carolina became Tennessee County, Tennessee, and was divided into Montgomery and Robertson Counties.

Consolidated counties
Three Tennessee counties operate under consolidated city-county governments, a city and county that have been merged into one jurisdiction. As such, these governments are simultaneously a city, which is a municipal corporation, and a county, which is an administrative division of a state.
 City of Nashville and Davidson County
 City of Lynchburg and Moore County
 City of Hartsville and Trousdale County
