About this map

The northern edge of Harrison and the surrounding Boone County terrain are defined by a complex network of winding hollows and drainages. This high-resolution topographic survey captures the rural character of the area as it appeared in 2020, centered on the settlement of Bergman and the nearby communities of Hopewell and Wooden Hills. The landscape is etched by water, with Crooked Creek flowing across the southern sections and the Marble Fork and Sugar Orchard Creek carving through the limestone-rich Ozark topography.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of several family and community burial sites, including York Cemetery, Bethany Cemetery, and Summers Cemetery. The map also details numerous small drainages such as Gooch Hollow and Slagley Hollow, which often serve as landmarks for property boundaries and ancestral homesteads. Transportation routes like State Highway 281 provide the primary connectivity through this deeply folded landscape of ridges and springs, including the notable Norvell Spring.
