About this map

Big Creek meanders through the heart of this Harrison County landscape, anchoring a rural network of small settlements and agricultural crossings. This 2011 survey illustrates the continued importance of historical community centers like Mitchellville and Bridgeport, the latter of which is home to the Happy Valley Post Office. The map documents a classic Midwestern drainage pattern, with numerous tributaries such as Fleenor Branch, Crabapple Branch, and Polecat Creek feeding into the main valley.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise locations of the Mount Olive Cemetery in the north and the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery further south near Pleasant Ridge. The infrastructure is defined by a dense grid of county roads, including Co HWY-468 and Co HWY-604, which connect these small clusters of population. The presence of the Miracle Hills Ranch and the quiet waters of Nelson Lake further define the land use of this Missouri township.
