About this map

Tates Hell Swamp dominates the northern reaches of this Franklin County landscape, its sprawling wetlands marked by the presence of an Old Logging RR and scattered outposts like Creels Side Camp. The area’s history is tied to the movement of timber and river access, seen in the small settlement of Beverly along the Apalachicola Northern line and isolated river points like Butcher Pen Landing and Gardner Landing. The southern half of the map dissolves into a labyrinth of tidal creeks and marshes, including Whisky George Creek and Montgomery Slough, which feed into East Bay. This coastal transition zone features small centers of community life such as Bethlehem Ch and family-named landmarks like Hays Place, providing a clear view of the rural Florida Panhandle before mid-century modernization altered these remote drainage patterns.
