2015 Map of Mount Moriah

About this map

Mount Moriah sits at the intersection of local routes in Harrison County, serving as the primary hub for a landscape defined by small-scale agriculture and managed water resources. The terrain is crisscrossed by a network of creeks including Panther Cr, Trail Cr, and Cat Cr, which feed into the Thompson River along the eastern boundary. This 2015 survey reveals a high density of private and county-managed water bodies, such as Hamilton Lake, Harrison County Lake E-1, and G Pitts Lake, illustrating the region's reliance on these basins for drainage and local use. Genealogists will find two significant burial sites documented: Stoner Cemetery to the north and the larger Mount Moriah Cemetery located just west of the main settlement. The map also captures the precise boundaries where Harrison, Mercer, and Grundy counties meet, providing a clear record of administrative lines and rural road naming conventions in this portion of Missouri.
