I am not sure that Wright camped at Big Creek.

He was on patrol up US 63 going to Pine Bluff when he found out about Longview and backtracked to Centerville to cut across and intercept the Union Cavalry on the Mt Elba Road. He may have stopped there for a short time to regather his troops once they established a defensive position to keep the Union Cavalry from crossing Big Creek, but that is about the only camping that I know of that Wright may have don't in this area.

I don't know if anyone has found evidence of the bridge across Big Creek. Supposedly it was between one and two miles south of the Big Creek bridges on hwy 114 today. But there evidently was one because many members of the Mt Elba Community attended Church at New Hope Missionary Baptist Church on 114 just past Big Creek.
