2015 Map of Bartow

About this map

Bartow sits at the heart of this landscape, serving as a hub where the Peace River and Peace Creek converge. The area is defined by its extensive lacustrine geography, featuring major water bodies like Lake Hancock and Eagle Lake, which shaped the early development of Highland City and Gordonville. The map illustrates a dense network of local roads and established neighborhoods, including Roux Quarters and Cox Corner, alongside municipal infrastructure like the Bartow Municipal Airport. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, ranging from Evergreen Cem and Oak Hill Cem in the city center to the outlying Glover Cem and Gandy Cem. Transport history is represented by the Spessard L Holland Bridge and the Gandy Bridge, which provide essential crossings over the sprawling creek systems that dominate the central terrain.
