Charles W. Gamble was born in Augusta, Virginia. He was married to Elizabeth (Fleming) Gamble in 1810. Charles fought in the War of 1812.
He was of Scotch-Irish lineage and in 1806, took up residence on a farm in Sale Creek, Tennessee, along with his brothers and sister. Like many of their neighbors, they came from Knox County.

Gamble was elected as the first sheriff of Hamilton County, Tennessee. (Source: https://www.hcsheriff.gov/gen_info/past_sheriffs/charles_gamble.asp )
