About this map

Ashland City serves as the focal point of this Tennessee landscape, situated along a winding bend of the Cumberland River. The importance of the waterway to local commerce and travel is evident through the series of riverfront locations, including Miles Landing, Crockets Landing, and the Ashland City Dock. Further upstream, Edwards Landing sits near Harpeth Island, marking the area's long history as a river-based transport hub.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain is defined by numerous hollows and ridges, such as Teasley Hollow and Slick Hollow. Genealogists will find a high concentration of family burial grounds scattered throughout the hills, including Hudgens Cemetery, Felts Cemetery, and Binkley Cemetery. These sites, alongside local roads like Old Clarksville Pike, trace the early settlement patterns of Cheatham County before modern development intensified.
