LaFollette, Tennessee
LaFollette is a city in Campbell County, Tennessee, United States. Its population was 7,456 at the 2010 census,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Census Summary File 1 (G001): La Follette city, Tennessee )〕 with an estimated population in 2014 of 7,131.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Annual Estimates of the Resident Population: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2014 (PEPANNRES): Incorporated Places in Tennessee )〕 It is the principal city of the LaFollette, Tennessee Micropolitan Statistical Area, which includes all of Campbell County, and is a component of the Knoxville-Sevierville-La Follette Combined Statistical Area. While the city's official spelling is one word ("LaFollette")—after its founders, Harvey Marion LaFollette and his younger brother Grant LaFollette—several federal agencies spell the city's name with two words ("La Follette").
==History==
Harvey and Grant LaFollette purchased at Big Creek Gap, where the present community lies, around 1890. They founded the LaFollette Coal, Iron, and Railway Company in order to exploit mineral resources they had observed. Although the business failed during the 1920s, the community continued to grow.〔http://www.lafollettetn.gov/history.htm〕〔Jim Matheny, (Why do they call it that- LaFollette ), WBIR.com, 19 August 2011. Retrieved: 30 August 2011.〕 The city of LaFollette was incorporated in 1897.
