John Wesley Frierson was born on September 25, 1880.
At the turn of the century, his family moved to Nashville. While in his early twenties, Frierson became interested in residential rental properties. He founded and operated the J. W. Frierson Realty Company at 431 Cedar (Charlotte) Street, which was the center of the black business district. After fifty-two years at that location, Frierson moved into his newly built J. W. Frierson Building at 1310 Jefferson Street. Eventually, he owned eighty-five parcels of property in predominantly black areas of Nashville. Frierson's motto was "Clean Deals in Dirt." At the height of his career, his personal worth was near one million dollars.
As his business prospered, Frierson increased his involvement in the Church of Christ. He considered himself a "steward" of the church. Frierson traveled extensively wherever the church met, seeking opportunities to assist struggling congregations, motivating them to engage in projects of improvement. It is estimated that eighty-nine church buildings were erected with the help of Frierson's endowment funds.
He also was active in youth affairs and supported civil rights' activities. encouraged youth with aspirations in the professions of medicine and law. In his will, Frierson stipulated that the Nashville branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was to have a permanent office in the J. W. Frierson Building at 1310 Jefferson Street. Because of his benevolence, both the local and the national headquarters of the NAACP honored Frierson with life memberships.
Frierson worshiped regularly at both the Jackson Street Church of Christ (founded in 1896) and the Jefferson Street Church of Christ (founded in 1914 and now the Schrader Lane Church of Christ). In 1963, two years before his death, Frierson established the John Wesley Frierson Church of Christ Development Foundation, chartered to receive, hold, and manage property for religious and charitable purposes. Upon his death on February 14, 1965, his will, drawn by attorney Z. Alexander Looby, provided real estate holdings for the Foundation, and the Frierson's home at 1230 Villa Place is maintained as rental property by the Foundation. On February 17, 1965, J. W. Frierson was interred in Nashville's Greenwood Cemetery.
From the 1940's to the early 1960's Jefferson Street was one of America's best-known districts of jazz, blues, and rhythm and blues. Famous African-American musicians played repeatedly in the many clubs. Little Richard, Jimi Hendrix, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, and Memphis Slim performed here regularly.
Many long-time Nashvillians consider 1935 – 1965 the Golden Age of Jefferson Street. Anybody who wanted to see and be seen was out and about on Jefferson. Show business headliners stopped in Nashville to try their acts. The Silver Streak, the great off-Jefferson St. ballroom booked such big names as Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Count Bas
Many long-time Nashvillians consider 1935 – 1965 the Golden Age of Jefferson Street. Anybody who wanted to see and be seen was out and about on Jefferson. Show business headliners stopped in Nashville to try their acts. The Silver Streak, the great off-Jefferson St. ballroom booked such big names as Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Count Basie, Ray Charles, and Ella Fitzgerald. Duke Ellington performed on Jefferson Street. Members of the old Negro Baseball League and recording artists such as Little Richard, Ruth Brown, Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald were staying at the elegant Brown’s Hotel and playing the famous Blue Room at Del Morocco, owned by “Uncle” Teddy Acklen.
In the Antebellum era, the street was a footpath running "from the Hadley plantation on the west to the Cumberland River on the east".
It later was improved as a road for wagons and horses.
During the American Civil War, it was straddled by Fort Gilliam, a Union Army camp, and a "large campus of runaway slaves were opened in the area."

The street was named in honor of U.S President Thomas Jefferson.
Jefferson Street is a street in Nashville, Tennessee, U.S., which developed as the historic center of the city's African-American community.

In 1873 in a private room at a royal estate in London, Queen Victoria and Prime Minister William Gladstone. listened as 11 brave students from Nashville’s Fisk University — many of them former slaves — sang “Steal Away” for her, with voices as lush and melodious as any traditional choir.
The group was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 2000. The Fisk Jubilee Singers went to Ghana, the location of a major port for the transatlantic slave trade, for the first time in 2007 to celebrate that country’s 50th anniversary, and the following year the ensemble was awarded the National Medal of Arts.
Fisk Jubilee Singers, group of African American singers established (1871) at Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee. It is one of the earliest and most-famous Black vocal groups, known for the performance of what were first called slave songs and later became known as African American spirituals
Fisk Jubilee singers raised enough money singing to save this historically Black university from going under.
