History
By March of 1943, the area's pre-Manhattan Project communities had been removed, and fences and checkpoints had been established. According to local tradition, John Hendrix (1865-1915), an eccentric local resident regarded as a mystic, prophesied the establishment of Oak Ridge some 40 years before construction began. When he described his visions, people thought he was insane; for this reason, he was imprisoned for a time. The Oak Ridge area was largely uninhabited by the time Euro-American explorers and settlers arrived in the late 1700s, although the Cherokee claimed the land as part of their hunting grounds. Robinson, 1950. Starting in October 1942, the United States Army Corps of Engineers began acquiring the Oak Ridge area for the Manhattan Project.
