Most of them settling around what is now Cascilla. Cascilla is located nine miles southeast of Charleston.. In 1833 the first settler was Thomas A. Ellis. He established himself about two miles northeast of the present town. He was soon followed by Ross, Staton, Cox, and the Calhoun families. Ross established his residence on the creek and erected a water mill which soon became the center of the community, and it was given the name Ross's Mill which it retained until around 1877. Ashland Church was built in the early 1840's near the neighborhood of the Ross's Mill. Many of the the old settlers remembered the community by the name of Ashland, but the name does not appear in the county records.
