2022 Map of Soldier Creek NW

About this map

Soldier Cr and its tributaries, including Little Cross Cr, carve a network of drainage through this agricultural landscape in northern Jackson County. The terrain is defined by the winding course of these waterways and a sharp landform known as Oak Mills Bend. Settlement patterns follow the traditional township and range grid, with sections bounded by rural routes such as 246th Rd and 214th Rd. For those researching local family history, the map identifies small, rural burial grounds including Olive Hill Cem and Boan Cem, which remain as quiet landmarks of the community's early development. The absence of large urban centers highlights the area's enduring reliance on the land and the waterways that sustain it.
