About this map

Ashland serves as the focal point of this Benton County landscape, where the town’s grid meets the Benton County Fairground and the Ashland Cem. The surrounding countryside is defined by a dense network of cemeteries that mark the rural geography, including Bethlehem Cem and Bogard Cem. To the west, the residential community of Snow Lake Shores surrounds the waters of Snow Lake, reflecting the mid-century development of recreational and residential lakeside living in northern Mississippi.

The terrain is dissected by numerous watercourses such as Big Snow Cr and Tubby Cr, which eventually lead toward the Tippah River at the southern boundary. Features like Hamer Hill and the Carter Flts provide topographic variety, while the John Farese Airpark signifies the modern infrastructure supporting this rural hub. This map captures the intricate balance between established family legacy sites and the evolving land use patterns of the early 21st century.
