History

The town of Madisonville was founded in 1853 as the county seat of the at the time newly organized Madison county. Lots were sold in the summer of the same year, on a 200 acre tract of land donated by Job Starks Collard. At the suggestion of Dr. Pleasant Williams Kittrell, the town was named after President James Madison. Hillary Mercer Crabb served as a justice of the peace and chief justice (county judge). In 1852 he was elected to serve the unexpired term of State Representative F. L. Hatch. Among Crabb’s accomplishments as a legislator was the introduction of a bill to create Madison County.
