My parents have had them nesting in their backyard consistently in
Maryville,TN (Blount CO.)
I know they were a constant on my old BBS route in Cleveland, TN
(Bradely Co)
In Hamilton County they seem to nest somewhere in the county every year,
they a very localized nester.

Just a few notes on House Wren breeding from ACBOT (Annotated Checklist)
...
First documented nesting in TN was in 1913 in Washington Co.
First Knox Co nesting: 1950
First Davidson Co nesting: 1957
First attempts in "Chattanooga area": 1978
First Shelby Co nesting: 1979
I've had at least 4 singing males in Knox Co this year without trying:
- 2 at Turkey Creek in late April filling nest boxes with sticks,
- 1 in Farragut near Lovell Rd and Kingston Pike intersection
(2-3 miles from Turkey Creek) singing all spring every time I
go for my weekly allergy shot
- 1 at home in the Cedar Bluff area today
and I've probably forgotten a few.
My wife's aunt and uncle have had them in their yard in Karns
(NW Knox Co) in previous years but I haven't been by lately.
