Calhoun is a town in McMinn County, Tennessee, United States. It is part of the Chattanooga–Cleveland–Athens combined statistical area. The population was 490 at the 2010 census.〔Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development, (Certified Population of Tennessee Incorporated Municipalities and Counties ), State of Tennessee official website, 14 July 2011. Retrieved: 6 December 2013.〕 ==History==
The Calhoun area was settled by John Walker (c. 1770-1834), a part-Cherokee grandson of Nancy Ward and a prominent figure in the formation of McMinn County. Walker operated a ferry along the Hiwassee River and helped contract the Cherokee Turnpike Company in 1806, which maintained the road between Knoxville and Georgia. In 1819, Walker helped negotiate the Calhoun Treaty, in which the Cherokee ceded the remaining lands between the Little Tennessee River and the Hiwassee River, including what is now McMinn County. McMinn County was organized at Walker's house that same year.〔C. Stephen Byrum, ''McMinn County'' (Memphis, Tenn.: Memphis State University Press, 1984), 9-20.〕 In 1820, Walker laid out the town of Calhoun, which he named for the Calhoun Treaty's chief U.S. negotiator, John C. Calhoun. Walker would eventually be assassinated by two anti-removal Cherokees, who felt he had betrayed the Cherokee nation.〔"(Goodspeed's History of McMinn County, Tennessee )," 1887. Transcribed for web content by Harold Mitchell. Retrieved: 31 December 2007.〕 Joseph McMinn, governor of Tennessee from 1815 to 1821, spent the last few years of his life in Calhoun, and is buried in the Shiloh Presbyterian Cemetery.
