1955 Map of Bronson NE

About this map

Merediths and the surrounding pine flatwoods of north-central Florida are captured here during a period of transition in the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by its karst topography, where numerous water bodies like Blue Pete Lake, Sawgrass Lake, and German Pond dot the terrain alongside unique geological features such as Cherry Sink. The economy of the era is evident in the industrial footprints of the Sinclair Mine and Bailey Mine, both noted as inactive by the time of the survey. Transport patterns show the evolution of the region, from the active Seaboard Air Line railroad in the northeast corner to an Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the central timberlands. Small family markers like the Smith Cem and local elevations such as Spring Hill provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the rural development of the Levy and Alachua county border.
