1949 Map of Bostwick

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Bostwick and the surrounding pine flatwoods of northern Putnam County appear here just after the war, a landscape defined by the drainage of Clarkes Creek and Simms Creek. This 1949 field-checked survey reveals a rural economy centered on the Atlantic Coast Line railroad, which runs south through the small settlements of Hancock and Sun Garden. Cultural landmarks like De Coy Ch and the Bostwick Airport are clearly marked, providing precise locations for local history researchers and genealogists. The map illustrates the boundary between Clay and Putnam counties, showing how the early road network and rail siding at Bostwick served this sparsely populated timber and agricultural region before significant modern development.
