About this map

Allanton and Farmdale sit at the center of this 1940s coastal landscape, where the tides of East Bay meet the low-lying wetlands of the Florida Panhandle. The area is defined by an intricate network of waterways, from the California Swamp in the northwest to the Wetappo Intracoastal Waterway Creek winding through the southeast. This survey, conducted by the Geological Survey and War Department during the mid-1940s, documents a rural coastal economy reliant on these natural harbors and inlets. Numerous named points and bayous, such as Bull Pt, Strange Bayou, and Lathrop Bayou, suggest a landscape deeply familiar to local boaters and fisherman. The path of Allanton Road provides the primary land connection through the pine flatwoods, linking these small settlements to the broader region during a period of significant coastal mapping for national defense.
