Crockett Mills is an unincorporated community in Crockett County, Tennessee, United States.[1] Its ZIP code is 38021.[2]
Crockett Mills was heavily influenced by founder J.F. Robertson. Originally named Robertsonville, the town's name was eventually changed to Crockett Mills because of the town's three mills: a saw mill, a flour mill, and a handle mill. The first school in Crockett Mills was named after Robertson and J.C. Hamlett, Robertson's partner. Today the former school building serves as the Crockett Mills Community Center.[3]
