About this map

Interlachen and the nearby settlements of Mannville and Hollister anchor this modern-day survey of Putnam County. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, featuring numerous bodies of water like Boll Green Lake, Lake Ida, and Jewel Lake. To the east, the terrain transitions into the expansive Rice Creek Swamp, a significant natural feature crossed by the Florida National Scenic Trail.

Genealogical interest is particularly high here due to the detailed documentation of local burial grounds and religious sites. The map identifies several small cemeteries, including Mel-Wun Cem near Carraway, Pine Lawn Cem, and the Naomi Cem. These landmarks, along with Carraway Church, provide precise points of reference for tracing family history and community evolution in this lake-strewn region of Florida.
