Helenwood is an unincorporated community in Scott County, Tennessee, United States. The population was 846 at the 2000 census, when Helenwood was treated as an incorporated municipality. For the 2010 census, it was a census-designated place (CDP) with a population of 865. ==History== Helenwood was platted in 1859 under the name "Homestead."〔 It was settled as a coal-mining community. The origin of its current name is not known.〔Larry L. Miller (2001), ''(Tennessee place-names )'', Indiana University Press. Page 97.〕 On April 5, 1935 a dynamite explosion caused extensive damage in Helenwood, destroying fifteen homes and damaging many other homes and businesses.〔(Dynamite Blast Rips Helenwood To Bits ), Scott County, Tennessee, GenWeb (accessed November 17, 2007)〕〔(Local Chapter of Red Cross Celebrates 75th ), Scott County, Tennessee, GenWeb, FNB Chronicles (accessed November 17, 2007)〕 One news account said that Helenwood was "literally wiped off the map."〔 There were no fatalities.〔 Helenwood was incorporated as a town by referendum in 1997, after the state statute that set minimum criteria for municipal incorporation was amended by the Tennessee General Assembly to remove the requirement that a newly incorporating area must not be within three miles of an existing city and to reduce the minimum population for incorporation from 1,500 residents to 225. The legislation that changed the statute had been introduced by Lieutenant Governor John S. Wilder in order to allow Hickory Withe to become a municipality. Helenwood's incorporation was rescinded by state courts after the amendments were declared unconstitutional.〔Associated Press, (High court refuses to hear "tiny towns" appeal ), ''The Oak Ridger'', January 27, 2000〕
