Dayton, Tennessee, was named after Dayton, Ohio. The community began to develop in the late 19th century, and local residents chose the name to honor the Ohio city, likely due to its growing significance and connections through the railroad. The town was officially incorporated in 1905 and has since become known for its historical significance, particularly due to the Scopes Trial in 1925.
