Jesse Todd, born 1770 - 1780, was one of the pioneers and early landholders of Rutherford County, Tennessee. His name first appears in Rutherford on an 1813 tax list, where he is shown to own 40 acres there.

In 1814, Jesse acquired 86 acres on Owl Creek, a branch of the Middle Fork of the East Fork of Stones River, (shown on the 1822 map), followed a decade later by his purchase of another Rutherford land parcel, dated 1824, of 50 acres adjoining Hugh Bradley's property on Dry Creek of the East Fork of Stones River.

Jesse is enumerated in the Rutherford census in 1820 near Edmund Todd, and again in Rutherford in 1830.

In 1840, 66 acres of land were purchased by Jesse in Cannon County on the East Fork of Stones River. That same year, Jesse is enumerated in the 1840 Cannon census, near M.F. Todd.

Jesse is further mentioned, along with Pinkney Todd, in Sterling Spurlock Brown's "History of Woodbury and Cannon County Tennessee", as a member of one of the first churches in the part of Rutherford that later became Cannon, The Curlee Church. Calvin Curlee's meeting-house was a log house built between 1815 and 1820, established by Curlee after breaking with the Baptists of Brawleys Fork. The church continues (now Curlee Church of Christ) in Curlee, in its original location west of Brawleys Fork.

Because Jesse had landholdings on a branch of the Middle Fork of East Fork, with a Bradley as his neighbor and was a member of a church built west of Bradleys Fork (now Brawleys Fork), every indicator points to his living between the old Bradleyville (now Bradyville) and the Big Springs area near the Rutherford and Cannon county line.

With all, and as little, as is known about Jesse Todd, original historical documents have yet to substantiate if he was related to other Todds mentioned above (Edmund Todd, M.F. Todd or Pinkney Todd) or other Todds in Tennessee.
