Kittrell is an unincorporated community along U.S. Route 70S in Rutherford County, Tennessee,[1] located seven miles east of Murfreesboro.[2] It shares the zip code of 37149 assigned to Readyville.[3]
The community is named for Major Marion B. Kittrell who sold his farm and moved to the area around Cripple Creek on July 18, 1874. A post office was established in 1884 but discontinued with the adoption of rural free delivery around 1903.[4] Kittrell has been home to several schools and churches over the years that have been disused or destroyed by fire.[5] Uncle Dave Macon purchased a home in the community in 1900 that still stands today.[6] Other prominent landmarks include Pilot Knob (also claimed by Readyville), an elementary school, and a fire department.[7][8]
