Memphis, Tennessee. Memphis’ first inhabitants were Native American Indians who lived along the Mississippi River for 10,000. A thousand years before foreign explorers entered the region, Chickasaw Indians controlled the bluffs. These Indians came to be known as Mound builders, for the massive mounds they built that now overlook the Mississippi River by DeSoto Park.

The first European to view the river from Memphis was the Spaniard explorer Hernando DeSoto, who crossed the Mississippi near Memphis in 1541. A hundred years later French explorers Fathers Marquette and Joliet sailed down the river through Memphis. After the French and Indian War in 1763, England gained control of the bluffs although the area was Chickasaw by treaty. The Indians, French, English, Spanish and new “Americans” coexisted along the river trading and skirmishing until Tennessee became a U.S. territory in 1790, and then a state in 1796. Although this land legally belonged to the Chickasaw Indians, the new settlers would eventually take it over.

 President Andrew Jackson, James Winchester and John Overton were considered the founders of Memphis. The city was surveyed and designed in 1819. The first Memphis immigrants were German and Irish, who established businesses, provided labor, and built some of Memphis’ first churches. St Mary’s is the oldest shrine in the country.

 Some of the first neighborhoods were also formed, including the Pinch district, which was named for the look of the poor, often malnourished Irish railroad workers who lived there. The Pinch has experienced a revival associated with Memphis’ sports and entertainment arena, The Pyramid, and Downtown’s trolley line that runs from the South Main district to the Pinch.
