1970 Map of Bakersville

About this map

Bakersville and its surrounding wetlands dominate this 1970s landscape, illustrating a transition between established local settlements and the expansive natural drainage systems of St. Johns County. The map details an environment defined by water, where Twelvemile Swamp and Trestle Bay Swamp converge with smaller drainages like Mill Creek and Sixmile Creek. Human presence is marked by community cornerstones such as the Mill Creek Sch and the Glimpse of Glory church, alongside infrastructure including a Lookout Tower and a Radio Tower.
