About this map

Harris sits at the center of this rural landscape, defined by a dense network of sectional roads and the meandering path of Pottawatomie Creek. The area’s settlement history is evident in its dispersed burial grounds, including Baird Cem and the Central City Cem near the small community of Central. These locations, along with Patton Cem and Bethel Cem, provide a geographical record of the family lineages that established farms across Anderson County.

Water plays a central role in the terrain’s layout, with Kenoma Cr, Elm Cr, and Iantha Cr cutting through the fields. While much of the land remains agricultural, the presence of Graham Farms Airport and Miller Airport indicates a reliance on private aviation for local transport and utility. The map also traces the drainage of Snake Lake and Andrews Lake, illustrating the hydrologic patterns that shaped the placement of roads like NW Barton Rd and Westphalia Rd.
