2011 Map of Ash Flat

About this map

Ash Flat and the small settlement of Center anchor this Sharp County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of winding tributaries. Numerous branches and creeks, such as North Big Creek, Underwood Branch, and Big Spring Branch, carve through the region, dictating the placement of rural roads and homesteads. The distribution of family and community burial sites, including the Old Baptist Cemetery, Wiles Cemetery, and Shiloh Cemetery, suggests a long-established pattern of local settlement and kinship ties.
