VISITING DYER COUNTY: Trimble
The town of Trimble had its beginning in 1873, the result of the building of a railroad from Paducah, Kentucky to Memphis, Tennessee, which ended at a bluff near the Dyer County line just across the Obion River Bottom. Here the bankrupt railroad remained uncompleted for several years on five acres of land donated by Jesse Pieerce, the founder of Trimble. Finally, businessmen contributed money and Judge Lawrence S. Trimble of Paducah reorganized the company. |
