About this map

Lake Iamonia dominates the northern reaches of this Florida landscape, characterized by its complex shoreline and named arms like Cromartie Arm. The early 1980s represent a significant period of suburban expansion north of Tallahassee, evidenced by the planned layouts of Killearn Estates, Killearn Acres, and Shannon Forest. This residential growth is superimposed over an older rural framework of named ponds and small family-linked landmarks, including the Bradford-Eppes Cem and Lester Cem.

A network of local roads such as Bradfordville Road and Pisgah Church Road connect established nodes like Bradfordville and Centerville. The map documents numerous country churches that served these communities for generations, from New Bethlehem Ch to the Pisgah Ch. To the south, the preserved landscape of the Alfred B Maclay State Gardens sits adjacent to Lake Hall, providing a contrast to the developing residential neighborhoods nearby.
