1954 Map of Chiefland SW

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Gulf Hammock dominates this coastal lowland landscape of Levy County, where a dense network of wetlands and tidal drainage patterns is interrupted only by the narrow corridor of Sumner. The mapping reflects a region defined by its hydrology, showing the vast transition between terrestrial forest and the gulf marshlands. Small clusters of structures appear along the intersection of local routes 24 and 345, marking the modest footprint of human settlement in a territory otherwise governed by the tides and the swamp. Surveyed in the early 1950s with later updates, the sheet documents the sparse development of the Florida Gulf Coast before modern expansion, preserving the location of local landmarks and isolated homesteads that once served the logging and fishing interests of the area.
