2018 Map of Lafontaine

About this map

Lafontaine serves as the primary settlement center in this region of Wilson County, situated just north of the border with Montgomery County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Fall River as it cuts through the northern sections, joined by various tributaries including W Rainbow Cr and E Rainbow Cr. The town's grid, featuring Main St and Olive St, reflects a classic Midwestern rail-era layout, though the tracks themselves have given way to local thoroughfares like 200 Rd. For those researching local family history, the map precisely locates Bachelder Cem in the northwest and Cheatham Cem near the center, providing vital geographic context for late 19th and 20th-century burials. The survey also details the complex drainage system south of town, where Elm Br, Mulberry Cr, and Sycamore Cr converge.
