2021 Map of Ashton

About this map

Ashton anchors the northern reaches of this Lee County landscape, situated where local thoroughfares like Main St and Cartwright Ave intersect. The surrounding agricultural terrain is etched by the drainage of Beach Cr and the Green River, showing a grid of rural roads named for long-standing local families. Genealogists and historians can locate several burial sites throughout the township, including the Ashton Cem near the town center, the Gehant Farm Cem further south, and the isolated Reynolds Cem to the east. Transportation patterns are defined by the straight runs of Meridian Rd and Car Line Rd, while the private Miller Airport stands as a distinct aeronautical landmark amidst the fields. This map preserves the rural character and land ownership boundaries of the region as they appeared in the early 21st century.
