1954 Map of Chiefland SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Gulf Hammock dominates this coastal landscape in the mid-1950s, revealing a dense network of marshes and lowlands characteristic of the Florida Gulf coast. The topography is exceptionally subtle, with much of the land sitting just above sea level. In this era, the settlement of Sumner appears as a small cluster of structures along the road, serving as a focal point for the surrounding wetlands. The survey reveals a landscape defined by its hydrology, where drainage patterns and swampy terrain dictate the placement of human activity. The boundary between T. 13 S. and T. 14 S. runs through the central portion of the sheet, providing a primary reference for property and genealogical research in this part of Levy County.
