1996 Map of Harrison

About this map

The Whitewater River carves through this borderland landscape where Ohio and Indiana meet, anchoring the twin settlements of Harrison and West Harrison. This late-twentieth-century update of a mid-century survey reveals a transition from the structured street grids of the riverside towns to the winding rural roads of Morgan and Whitewater townships. The map documents numerous family and local landmarks, including the Snow Cem near Snow Hill and the Otwell Cem, providing essential details for genealogical research. Cultural features like the Covered Bridge on Johnson Fork and the Drewersburg Ch sit alongside modern developments such as the Harrison Airport and the expansive Miami Whitewater Forest County Park. Small crossroads communities like Okeana, Alert, and Macedonia punctuate the northern uplands, connected by historic routes like New London Road and Okeana Drewersburg Road.
