2019 Map of Ashland City

About this map

Ashland City anchors this topographic study along a winding stretch of the Cumberland River, where the landscape is defined by deep hollows and the drainages of Marrowbone Creek and Big Bluff Creek. The terrain is marked by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Forest Hill Cem and Fannie Field Cem, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogists tracing local lineage in Cheatham County. To the north, the upland settlements of Pleasant View and Lockertsville are connected by historical routes like the Old Clarksville Pike. The map illustrates a complex network of smaller waterways, including Sycamore Creek and Marks Creek, which have shaped the settlement patterns from Sycamore down to the riverfront. These features collectively highlight the enduring rural character and historical geography of the region as it appeared in the late 2010s.
