2024 Map of Bennett

About this map

Econfina Creek carves a central path through this landscape, dividing the boundary between Washington and Bay counties. The area is defined by a complex hydrologic network, ranging from the dense Swift Creek Swamp to a multitude of named water bodies such as Hamlin Lake, Gainer Pond, and Wolf Pond. For those tracing local families, the map provides precise locations for several lineage-named landmarks, including McQuagge - Harris Cem, Watts Gainer Cem, and Mashburn Cem. The settlement at Bennett anchors the southern portion of the sheet, while the Florida National Scenic Trl winds through the northern terrain, following the natural contours of the river valley and the limestone-rich topography typical of this Florida Panhandle region.
