Bakerville is a rural unincorporated community in Humphreys County, Tennessee, United States, several miles south of the county seat of Waverly. It is quite near the confluence of the Buffalo and Duck Rivers.

[edit] History

It is believed that the town's name goes back to the Baker families that resided in the area during the 19th-century. At one point, no less than 80 Baker's lived in the small town circa 1880.[1]
