2011 Map of Pleasant Grove

About this map

Cedar Creek Reservoir dominates this portion of Franklin County, its irregular shoreline reaching into deep hollows and creek beds. The landscape is defined by the containment of Cedar Creek behind the Cedar Creek Dam, a project that transformed the local geography. For genealogists, the map is remarkably detailed regarding burial sites, recording numerous family and community grounds such as Coondog Cemetery, Blue Lick Cemetery, and Ezzell Cemetery. Settlement patterns are visible near Pleasant Grove and White Oak, while older transit points are preserved through labels like Slickrock Ford and Ezzell Ford. Many roads, such as Coondog Cemetery Rd and Bond Cemetery Rd, lead directly to these historical landmarks, reflecting the area's deep-rooted community history prior to the reservoir's expansion.
