2014 Map of Ardmore

About this map

Ardmore sits directly on the state boundary, where the CSX Transportation rail line and local roads like State Line Rd divide Alabama and Tennessee. This survey documents a landscape of numerous family and community cemeteries, including Gatlin Cem, Austin Cem, and Tillery Cem, which suggest a deeply rooted rural genealogy across the county lines of Limestone, Giles, Madison, and Lincoln. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of several drainages, such as Piney Cr and Little Limestone Cr, punctuated by vital water sources like Wooley Spring and Old Limestone Church Spring. Small settlements like Bethel, Pisgah, and Maple Hill are interconnected by a network of named country roads, while the presence of Concord Church and numerous smaller burial grounds like Milhouse Cem and German Cem point to the enduring community centers of this border region.
