2011 Map of Harriet

About this map

The Harriet Post Office serves as the focal point for this rural pocket of Searcy County, where high ridges and deeply cut hollows dictate the layout of roads and settlements. Community life is anchored by a series of family and local burial grounds, including the Cypert Cemetery, Shiloh Cemetery, and Red Hill Cemetery, which are scattered throughout the landscape near small crossroads such as Morning Star and Baker. The topography is defined by prominent elevations like Blackjack Knob and Stephenson Mountain, with the interior area known as The Wilderness suggesting the dense, unpopulated character of the timberland between the forks of Big Creek and Davis Creek. This 2011 survey reveals a persistent rural pattern where modern county roads follow the winding contours of ancient drainages like Barren Hollow and Mill Hollow.
