About Belle Meade, TN

The city of 3.1 square miles (8.0 km 2) takes its name from Belle Meade Plantation, which once encompassed 5,300 acres (2,100 ha). It was founded by planter John Harding and inherited at 1,200 acres by his son, William Giles Harding. Before the Civil War, the younger Harding more than doubled the property and built a new mansion, with the labor of the 136 slaves he owned. His descendants founded the Belle Meade Country Club here in 1901. Because of debt, the trustee of the Belle Meade Estate sold the mansion and 2,200 acres in May 1906 to Jacob McGavock Dickinson, the general counsel of the Illinois Central Railroad.
