About this map

Econfina Creek carves a winding path through the center of this landscape, its steep banks and surrounding wetlands defining the topography of northern Florida just after World War II. The settlement at Bennett serves as a primary reference point in the south, while the northern reaches are dominated by the extensive Deadening Lakes system and Porter Lake. The terrain is characterized by numerous isolated water bodies and sinkholes, many with distinctive names like Rattlesnake Lake and Sparkleberry Pond, which imply the natural flora and fauna encountered by locals. For those researching family history or early land use, the Gainer Cem and the naming of Mitchell Mill Creek and Old Mill Branch provide evidence of early industry and community burial grounds along the Washington Co Bay Co line.
