2019 Map of Fairview

About this map

Fairview and its surrounding communities are defined by a complex network of hollows and ridges situated along the Davidson and Williamson county line. The drainage of the South Harpeth River and Leipers Fork shapes the local topography, creating numerous named landmarks such as Buzzard Bluff, Otter Bluff, and Lovers Leap. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family-named cemeteries, including Lampley Cem, Mangrum Cem, and Inman Cem, indicating deep-rooted multi-generational land ownership. The historic Natchez Trace Pkwy traverses the southeast corner near Leipers Fork, following an ancient travel corridor that predates modern state highways like Old State Hwy 96. Small settlements such as Fernvale and Kingfield persist within this landscape of steep timbered hills and winding creek bottoms.
