1947 Map of Bostwick

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Saint Johns River dominates this mid-century portrait of the Florida interior, serving as the primary geographic divider between Clay, Putnam, and Saint Johns counties. Along its western bank, the Atlantic Coast Line railroad dictates the placement of settlements like Bostwick, Leno, and Walkill, illustrating the era's reliance on rail for the transport of local goods. The river shoreline is densely packed with named points and historical river access sites, including Magnolia Landing, Clay Landing, and Lane Landing, which reflect a legacy of water-based commerce before the full dominance of modern highways. To the north, Green Cove Springs appears as a primary regional hub, connected eastward across the water by the Shands Bridge. The map captures a landscape transitioning from traditional river-and-rail dependency toward a more integrated road network, including Governors Road and Tocoi Road.
