1968 Map of Bell

About this map

Bell serves as the primary community in this north-central Florida interior, situated at a junction of regional transport and agriculture during the late 1960s. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad runs through the town and the smaller stop at Williford, facilitating the transport of materials from local operations like the western Quarry and various sand and gravel pits. The landscape is dominated by a high density of sinkhole lakes and cypress ponds, including Sevenmile Lake, Half Moon Pond, and the uniquely named Poley Cow Pen.
