Located 89 miles south of Nashville, Tennessee, the unincorporated community of Leoma, Tennessee began as a town in 1893 when A.H. Freemon moved his sawmill to the area so he could ship lumber by rail. Settlers began to move to the area found to be full of trees, wild game, and plenty of sources for water.
