1945 Map of Beverly

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Tates Hell Swamp dominates this coastal landscape, a dense network of blackwater creeks and wetlands that shaped the early logging and maritime economy of the Florida Panhandle. The map reveals the intricate drainage of Deep Creek and Graham Creek as they flow toward the Apalachicola River and East River. Small settlements and family names are preserved here, including the communities of Beverly and Creels, and historic sites like Hays Place. The transportation of the era is evident in the presence of the Old Logging RR, which speaks to the industrial extraction of timber from the wetlands. Along the water, specialized points such as Gardner Landing and Butcher Pen Landing indicate centers of local trade and movement. The southern reaches of the map open into East Bay, flanked by features like Tank Island and Round Bay, where the St Marks River meets the Gulf tidal system.
