Incorporation & Early Days
La Vergne was incorporated 40 years ago on February 29, 1972. The city,
however, was named La Vergne on August 23, 1852 as the postmaster
honored his friend Francois Lenard Gregoire de Roulhac de La Vergne who
died on that day.
La Vergne has a rich history of early
pioneers, Civil War battles, devastating tornadoes, train wrecks, major
industrial growth, and huge population shifts. Through it all, we have
been friends, neighbors, and a strong community that cares.
