1949 Map of Ates Creek

About this map

Camp Blanding dominates the western portion of this landscape, reflecting a time of significant military activity with features like the Machine Gun Range and Mobile Target Range. To the east, the planned community of Penney Farms and its associated Memorial Homes offer a distinct contrast, showcasing mid-century social and agricultural planning. The map reveals a land defined by water and woods, from the perfectly circular Kingsley Lake to the meandering courses of the North Fork Black Creek and South Fork Black Creek.
