2012 Map of Harris

About this map

Medicine Creek and West Locust Creek define the north-south drainage of this agricultural region in Sullivan County, where the small communities of Harris and Newtown serve as local anchors. The landscape is marked by a network of rural roads such as Azalea Dr and Ava Dr, connecting scattered farmsteads and family-linked sites. The distribution of Busby Cemetery, Brackett Cemetery, and the Wintersville Cemetery near the settlement of Wintersville provides a clear view of the area's ancestral settlement patterns. The U.S. Geological Survey documented this quadrangle during a period of modern rural stability, capturing the precise locations of public buildings and homesteads that represent the enduring small-town character of northern Missouri.
