How Our Counties Got Their Names
by Harmon Jolley
posted April 29, 2004
When colonists formed local governments in America, they used a system that had existed for many years in Europe. In France, a "county" was ruled by a count. The English established county governments to collect taxes, to maintain official documents such as deeds, to build public roads, and to perform other duties that counties do today. During the American expansion into the frontier, county boundaries were drawn soon after the creation of each state. Names of the counties came from American Indian place names, Founding Fathers, and war heroes.
I’m sure that there is much discussion each day around the office water cooler, dinner table, and golf course about the origin of local county names. So, here in one handy list for your reference, is an etymology of Hamilton and its neighboring counties.
Zu folgenden Counties findet man Hinweise zur Namensgebung: HAMILTON | JAMES | MARION | SEQUATCHIE | BLEDSOE | RHEA | MEIGS | BRADLEY | CATOOSA | WALKER | DADE

Dolly Parton - Rose
Dolly Parton or Orange Red, Hybrid Tea 1983
Die Teehybride "Dolly Parton" (Winchel, USA) trägt den Namen der amerikanischen Country-Sängerin, Songschreiberin und Schauspielerin "Dolly Rebecca Parton".
In einer Radiosendung in der ersten Juliwoche 2007 war zu erfahren, dass das Klonschaf "Dolly" aus einer Euterzelle eines "Mutterschafes" erschaffen wurde. Angeregt von der Oberweite der Countrysängerin "Dolly Parton" sollen die Wissenschaftler auf den Namen "Dolly" gekommen sein.
Dolly Parton ist der populärste Country-Star aller Zeiten. Und eine äußerst clevere Geschäftsfrau, die es seit Jahrzehnten versteht, die Marke Dolly Parton immer wieder neu zu verkaufen.
